Here are some images from our Passions themed night of short plays on 5 December. We will be adding links to the plays on youtube shortly.

Nigel Banks and Sadie Hurley in 'Fish on a plate' by Maggie Drury

Maggie Drury's short play 'Fish on a plate' was about a very strange couple - one whose passion is words and the other whose passion is glass!

'Such a nice girl' by Melissa Keighley told a dark tale of a woman whose desire to have her own space leads to murder.

She Writes December 2012

She Writes in December is all about our passions and obsessions! We're really looking forward to seeing into our writers' psyches!

As it's the last She Writes before Christmas we will also be hosting a poetry open mic - open to both men and women.

You will have a 5 minute slot and we ask that you read a maximum of 3 poems on the topic of your passions/obsessions during this time (depending on how many open mic-ers attend your slot might be shorter.)

'Passions' - 5 December 2012

We have confirmed a slot in December for an event themed around 'Passions'. The deadline is not till 31 October - so you have a while to get inspired.

What are you passionate about? What is your obsession? Maybe the popularity of Mr Grey has made you see red. Perhaps caravans are the things that you most adore. Maybe you are a secret philatelist...
Please feel free to interpret the theme very broadly.

Due to time constraints we can only accept plays of a maximum 8 minutes, as we want to be able to showcase as many plays as possible. To see some guidelines on submitting your work and what to expect if your play is chosen have a look here.
