503Studio Tasters: A Writer’s First Bite

Have you ever fancied creating some drama? Saying something about the world or imagining an entirely new one? Creating your very own collection of weird and wonderful characters? If so, then this could be for you. Whether you’ve never written before but don’t know where to start or don’t quite have the confidence to commit to a course – the 503 team are offering a first taste of what it’s like to start writing – and who knows where it might lead after that.

Thanks to DCMS Cultural Recovery Fund and our Share The Drama scheme, we want to make sure those of you who are struggling in the current climate can still take part in our Summer Writers Programme. 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.

To express interest in a bursary place through our Share The Drama scheme, please sign up here. If you would prefer to speak directly to a member of our team about your circumstance or to ask for more information about this scheme, please contact us.

If you have any access requirements, you can let us know here. You can view what we currently are able to offer on our Accessibility page. If you would rather discuss any access requirements and how we can accommodate them prior to booking, please get in touch with us.

Running time of workshop: 2 hours – delivered online. Maximum class sizes are 14. A portion of spaces have been reserved for Share the Drama places.

Our 503 Studio Tasters will be led by Steve Harper (Literary Manager), Lauretta Barrow (Literary Associate) and Anastasia Osei-Kuffour (Carne Associate Director)
