Play Theatre is writing software for individuals who want planned, industry-formatted, theatre scripts for all aspiring and established playwrights.
With the rapid growth of theatre in the last decade, the lack of writing software catered to playwrights, we're ready to make a big impact for playwrights around the world.
This proposal will outline our conceptualisation and growth processes.
The Product
Pain Point
Why we came up with Play Theatre
The idea for Play Theatre came about through an opportunity to convert our successful book series to an adapted play.
Not knowing how to write a play, we looked online and the only writing tools were for film or television scripts.
Having identified the opportunity to address a gap in the market, we validated our ideas through surveys and focus groups involving individuals in the theatre world.
This provided us with the knowledge that there is demand for a product like this. Ranging from students to professionals who have all been frustrated with current writing tools.

Our product is software specially designed for all playwrights from novices and experienced playwrights who want to plan and write their plays without the hassles of clunky word processors and complex film software.
