Playwriting at The Pit - October 10 to November 28th 2018.
The Playwriting at the Pit workshops are a sounding board for writers at all stages of development, a space for work in progress and a launch pad for new ideas.
Saffron Myers (Paines Plough, Hampstead Theatre) and Mike Carter (The Space, London Playwriting Lab, South London Writers' Group) are delighted be working at the Cockpit Theatre studios this autumn to help develop more plays and support more new writing.
Playwriting at the Pit has been devised to support writers with new work. Whether you are established or just starting out, we can help you focus, get your ideas on paper and move forward with your drafts. The programme comprises six weekly sessions led by Saffron and Mike at the Cockpit with two writing weeks for you to work on your play in your own time.
Sessions take place on Wednesday from 7-9pm as below. The Cockpit is a short walk from Marlybone Station.
You will be given a series of exercises tailored to your goals and tried and tested tools to develop your skills. You will also have the chance to work with professional actors too see your words come to life. You will benefit from mentoring throughout and a one to one session on a completed draft once you've finished.
We work hard to ensure the Writer’s Group is a positive, welcoming and enthusiastic environment in which writers can share their experiences with each other.
The cost of the programme is £115 for the above. Spaces are strictly limited to eight with two concession places available to students, OAPs, unwaged and members of equity. Book your tickets here or email mikewritesabit@me.com with any questions.
