Short Cuts – Mini Pantomimespaperwebsitecropped

Thursday 3 & Friday 4 December @ 8pm

It’s too early for festive merriment.  Oh no, it’s not!  Come and listen to a variety of new seasonally adjusted scripts and pick your favourite in the Christmas version of Live’s regular writer’s event.

My effort ‘Little’ Red Riding Hood will be in the mix, a modern take on that girl with a love of vermilion. And excitingly, I wrote it all in rhyme. Like you do! It seemed like a good idea at the time but was blinkin’ hard work.

Tickets are £6/£4 and can be bought from Live on 0191 232 1232.

Hope to see you there for some Crimbletide fun …!

Pinch and a punch for the first of the month …

Youwritetheplay is part of Hampstead Theatre’s New Writing Festival, Daring Pairings.

Part of the Festival included a world record-breaking attempt to create a play with the most authors and I, of course, couldn’t resist the chance to put in my two-penneth worth.

Extracts of the chain play were performed last night. Last author count – 196!
