BCG Pro Talent Awards

The BCG Pro Talent Awards celebrate the best up-and-coming British comedy writers, producers and performers. They're designed to both challenge and develop entrants' abilities, and to showcase the best new talents to the comedy industry.

Entry is free for BCG Pro subscribers. Why not join BCG Pro today?

There are two levels of award: one for Starter members and one for our other members; so you're only ever competing with your peers.
