This fun and practical session will explore writing for different performance mediums; theatre, television and audio drama. We’ll begin by looking at essential tools to find ideas, create characters and structure compelling stories for live performance. Moving into discussing Tv, film and audio drama. We will then look at how we use those stories and adapt them for different mediums.
