503Studio Masterclass: Writing for Performance, Charlie Josephine

How do you stay safe when writing from personal experience? How do you stop it all becoming a bit self-indulgent? Where should you even start?! Expect honest conversation, questions explored, and exercises on generating material to begin writing your perfect part.

While we prioritise anyone who is long term unemployed and/or claiming benefits, we’re also offering subsidies if you’re in financial difficulty as a result of the Covid-19 crisis.
