There is going to be a scripted reading of screenplays written as part of a Bridport Arts Centre course which was delivered by Hester Schofield. My screenplay titled Love Hearts is included in the programme alongside Bertha’s Legacy by Elizabeth Friend, Bloodlines by Maya Pieris, Second Fiddle by Maria Pruden-Medus and Christmas Haunting by Sarah Scally. Each reading lasts approximately 10 minutes and lines will be delivered by actors from Bridport Arts Centre. As my screenplay is about improving the life chances of an illiterate young homeless man, members of the youth theatre BACStage have been approached to take the parts of the two teenage leads.
If you would like to attend the scripted reading, this will take place on Thursday 9 June at 7:30pm in the Bridport Arts Centre café. So come along and enjoy extracts from screenplays written by Dorset authors and performed by Dorset actors.
I very much look forward to seeing some of you there!
This sounds very exciting Gail and it will be a wonderful experience to hear your work read ‘professionally’. Bit too far from Verwood though I’m afraid, but enjoy the evening, you deserve it.
Thanks, Pauline. Got to get through the rehearsals first!
