Write Something: Alphabetti Theatre

This Event has passed

Have you ever wanted to turn your hand to theatre writing but didn't know where to start? Do you want a space and a time to write with a deadline? Do you want to see your new short play read by a team of actors?

Then join Alphabetti's Literary Manager, Ben Dickenson, for 5 weeks of writing workshops, with the occasional appearance of Alphabetti’s Artistic Director, Ali Pritchard. Starting 5th September and running until 3rd October 2018 at the Alphabetti Theatre in Newcastle.

Write Something will help you develop your own writing process, in a supportive environment. Workshops include activities exploring character development, story construction, dialogue and monologue, and provide you with plenty of time to write.

By the end of the programme, each participant will have created a 5 minute script for up 2 actors. On week 6, you will get to see your play read by actors in front of a public audience.

Taking part in Write Something is also the best way to introduce yourself to Alphabetti Theatre. The theatre commission scripts for in-house productions throughout the year, and like to build relationships with writers. The better they know you, the better you can work together.

These workshops are suitable for the experienced, emerging or just picking up a pen for the first time.

The workshop dates are:

  • Workshop 1: Wednesday 5th September, 6.00pm - 7.30pm
  • Workshop 2: Wednesday 12th September, 6.00pm - 7.30pm
  • Workshop 3: Wednesday 19th September 6.00pm - 7.30pm
  • Workshop 4: Wednesday 26th September, 6.00pm - 7.30pm
  • Workshop 5: Wednesday 3rd October 6.00pm - 7.30pm
  • Showcase script-in-hand performance: Wednesday 10th October, 7.30pm
