Call for entries: BBC World Service


From the BBC World Service web site:
BBC African Performance is an annual season of unique radio drama, which has now entered its fifth decade and has been designed to encourage new African writing.
In the past decade, African Performance has continued to reveal themes that reflect the concerns of the continent.
The plight of child soldiers, mob justice, people trafficking and prostitution, football fanaticism, internet dating and science fiction – these are just a few of the themes that have emerged from our competition in recent years.
If you feel that you can authentically touch the lives of Africans with your writing – why not submit your script for a radio play.
