No grant for A-level plays
By Tara Tan
TWO plays which are A-level literature texts have been given an advisory of 'some coarse language' by the Media Development Authority.

Local arts group Wessex Theatre is staging the two plays - British playwright Caryl Churchill's iconic feminist play Top Girls and American playwright David Auburn's Pulitzer Prize-winning Proof.

The advisory does not bar students from watching the show but makes the plays ineligible for the Tote Board Arts Grant subsidy, which gives students up to 60 per cent off ticket prices.
