the old vic Sunday 28 October 2012 Welcome to And a of magical new .

I’m sorry I can’t be with you all tonight but you are in for a real treat. The hairs on the back of my neck stand on end as I recall the palpable fizzle of excitement you are feeling in the auditorium tonight. If this is your first time attending this event – hold on tight and enjoy the ride…

In the past 24 hours, 39 of the most promising emerging theatrical talent have created six brand new plays from scratch. When the group met yesterday at 8.30pm, there were no scripts, no costumes, and no props – all they had on the table was a glass of enthusiasm, a side portion of apprehension and huge serving of talent.

As a Celebrity Gala, The 24 Hour Plays (in 2012, The 24 Hour Musicals Celebrity Gala) has been an Old Vic flagship project since 2004, welcoming names such as Jim Broadbent, Kelly Brook, Josh Hartnett, Brook Shields, Vince Vaughn and Richard Wilson to our stage. Always a glittering and adrenaline-fuelled evening, it also raises vital funds to support Old Vic New Voices. In 2005, we decided to open up the challenge to 18–25 year old emerging writers, directors, producers and actors. The 24 Hour Plays: Old Vic New Voices was born.

Our of 39 exceptional actors, writers, producers and directors were chosen from over 2,700 applicants through our partner website, IdeasTap. The 1,900 actors were invited to two rounds of auditions, whilst OVNV and a selection of industry experts pored over 600 writing, directing and producing applications. 92 artists were then invited to a fast-paced audition as a panel observed, made notes and watched the participants working together. After hours of deliberation the 39 hungriest, bravest and most creative team members were selected.

We supported these talented few by inviting them to The Old Vic and in just one day gave them the tools to flourish as a company on the project. The actors received vocal and physical tips for commanding the vast Old Vic auditorium and an audience of 1,000, directors were tutored in how to best utilise the stunning set and the producers were mentored through the process of creating something so ambitious in such a short time.

The brave company are now back stage waiting for the curtain to go up so they can share with you the culmination of 24 hours of hard work. I’m sure you’ll welcome them with the reception they deserve.

Kevin Spacey watches The 24 Hour Plays: Old Vic New Voices auditions, 2006 Photo: Manuel Harlan Hello The way that Old Vic New Voices invests in emerging artists and showcases talent through The 24 Hour Plays: Old Vic New Voices was one of the things that inspired me to set up my own arts charity – IdeasTap – as part of The Peter De Haan Charitable Trust.

The 24 Hour Plays: Old Vic New Voices were one of the things that inspired me to set up a creative network in 2008. I love the risk it takes in creating new shows with unknown emerging artists in just 24 hours and the opportunity it provides for young people to showcase their talent on such a big stage. IdeasTap was set up back in 2008 to support and multiply opportunities like this, which offer great experience and connections with collaborators and industry professionals.

Since 2008, when we set out to connect emerging artists with the things they need at the start of their careers, we’ve seen phenomenal growth.

Our community is now made up of 70,000 members and nearly doubled in size in the last year alone. We’ve offered over 30,000 creative opportunities for our members. We’re the best in funding for emerging talent, having awarded over £500,000 to our members and we’ve advertised thousands of relevant jobs too.

We know how hard it can be for young creatives at the start of their careers, because we talk to our members every day about what they need and how we could help. So, this year our plan is to continue to invest heavily in IdeasTap and offer more opportunities, funding and advice.

We’ll do this by partnering with more leading arts organisations like Old Vic New Voices and by engaging with more young creatives at the start of their careers like you!

So, all that leaves me to say is have a fantastic night and tomorrow morning check out www..com to get involved.

For others, this will be a long night, a very long night. 9.30am As rehearsals commence, requests flood in for props and 12 midnight costume. With no money, the producers beg, borrow, steal, Shit... has anyone told the actors the clocks go forward? and improvise. Time ticks away and each group are only allowed one hour on the stage.

4pm Technical rehearsals begin and ‘the fear’ kicks in.

5.30pm Dinner, for those that can stomach it...

6.30pm Actors gather for a team talk and warm-up. Many would prefer to just learn their lines.

7.15pm Nervous actors huddle in the wings, glancing at scripts with just minutes to go. The sound of a paying audience will assure some and petrify others. Six short plays have been created, and the hard work of 39 practitioners will be showcased on The Old Vic stage.

One thing is certain: the curtain will rise in a matter of minutes and something will definitely happen...
