Treepress is an online platform designed for users to upload, search and license scripts for plays.
There are 700,000 amateur theatre performances in the UK alone. Users can upload their scripts to the site and search the database to discover new work to perform. The platform aims to solve key problems of theatre publishing – publishers find it hard to distribute their work, self-publishing is time consuming, and content is impossible to find.
iTunes has revolutionised the way music is licensed and distributed. Perhaps theatre is the next frontier. If you’re looking to publicise your script or looking for a script to perform, this seems the ideal vehicle.
