‘I think a lot of people go to the theatre and don’t necessarily really think about the script,’ explains Deborah Franco, producer of the Australian Playwrights’ Festival.
‘They see the production and all that the production encompasses – the design and the direction and all of that – but they don’t necessarily think about the playwright and perhaps fully understand that, without the script, we don’t have a play. We need to make playwrights more visible.’
