Writing For Radio
A non-residential weekend course with tutors
SUE WILSON and JENNY STEPHENS
Held at Shottery, Stratford-Upon-Avon
SUE WILSON was the Senior Radio Drama Producer in Birmingham at the BBC and won SONY and CRE awards for her work, bringing over 200 new plays to the airwaves.
JENNY STEPHENS was a Radio Drama Producer with the BBC and has most recently written a four-part drama for BBC7, broadcast this spring.
Both Jenny and Sue have produced and directed Afternoon Plays, Woman's Hour Dramas, Classic Serials, Comedy Series and The Archers for Radio 4.
THE COURSE which caters for all stages of experience, will explore techniques used in writing drama for radio (the use of acoustics, creating a sense of place, the voice in the head etc). It will also cover character, structure and how to get your work commissioned. Part of the weekend will involve having an extract of your writing given a rehearsed reading by professional actors experienced in radio drama (including The Archers).
