Unwritten: Showcase
We are entering our third phase of our Artist Development programme: Unwritten. Through this initiative, we paired six talented writers and directors, whose work was featured at our Scratch Night at Theatre Royal Winchester.
From these, not one but two winners were chosen: Alternate Reality by Jonathan Edgington, directed by Alix Cazalet, and Soulmates by Sara Fairclough, directed by Rebecca Godden. Both productions will be developed into 45-minute duologues and performed on the main stage cabaret style at Theatre Royal Winchester.
Don't miss this exciting celebration of fresh, local writing and creative talent!
Alternate Reality
By Jonathan Edgington
Directed by Alix Cazalet
Long suffering Paula is rapidly running out of patience with her nice but predictable and boring husband - so how will she react when he unexpectedly steps out of his comfort zone and buys her the most unusual birthday present ever?
Soulmates
By Sara Fairclough
Directed by Rebecca Godden
A train comes to a stop. A Boy meets a girl. A story unfolds. As we follow a journey through time, two people build a connection rooted in friendship, acceptance and maybe love. What does it really mean to be soulmates, to feel like you’ve known each other for a lifetime? Through differences in lifestyles and personality, can these two people truly form a lifelong bond?
