Selected finalists' pieces will be performed live and on screen by professional S&CO Actors, before the awards ceremony.
This year's guest speakers are scriptwriting guru and author Lucy V Hay of Bang2Write, and John Hodge, BAFTA-award-winning screenwriter of films including Trainspotting, A Life Less Ordinary, The Beach and Shallow Grave.
