Author Description

Ten scripts. Ten writers. One anthology. This year's scriptwriting anthology contains work from a group of writers who all offer something different for both the stage and screen. Each script celebrates the writer's distinct voice and proves that the MA Scriptwriting course is vital in bringing a writer's creativity to life. Spanning a wide range of genres, the anthology is a delightful mix of the weird and the wacky: people queue up to win a can of baked beans, friends encounter ghosts and an awkward teenager gets help with his Christmas shopping from the unlikeliest of people. As we are led through each script by memorable characters, and transported from worlds which are cheerful and light or dark and twisted, there's no doubt that this year's anthology showcases the best of UEA writing talent.
