An introduction to playwriting
The Middle Child Writers’ Group offers a free introduction to playwriting, led by our associate artist and Hull-based writer, Tom Wells.
You don’t need to have written anything before, you just need to have a few good stories to tell – funny stories, sad stories, tough stories, tender stories – stories we’re eager to see on Hull stages.
You’ll take part in a series of five weekly workshops, in-person at our Theatre Library, focused around finding your voice as a playwright.
You will then begin work on a new play, which will receive feedback from Tom and Middle Child artistic director, Paul Smith. There will also be a sixth workshop, working with actors to bring your early texts to life.
The 2023 group will meet on the following dates, from 6-8pm, at the Middle Child Theatre Library:
- Tuesday 5 September
- Tuesday 12 September
- Tuesday 19 September
- Tuesday 26 September
- Tuesday 3 October
