NEWvember Festival
NEWvember is a festival of rehearsed readings of new plays over one weekend at venues across Dublin, produced by AboutFACE Ireland.
The spirit of NEWvember is to provide a dynamic, interactive and comfortable place where writers can hear their plays read by professional actors and discuss their work and creative process with the audience.
The winner play of the festival is awarded the Playwrights Pen Award which was commissioned to me for the last two editions. An award with a modern and minimalist design that has a pen holder functionality and above all is an alive trophy, an air plant complete is essence.
