London Playwrights' Workshop

Want to know how to pitch your ideas with ease and confidence?

O﻿ur new series of lunchtime workshops is designed to add a creative break to your day! As playwrights, we have to pitch in many different ways: from an interview for a writer development programme to a meeting with a producer to a friend asking ‘what are you writing at the moment?’During this session, Kimberley Andrews will talk you through the benefits of a confident pitch and introduce different types of pitching: from from loglines to blurbs to simply having a conversation about your play (as you might with a Literary Manager).Y﻿ou&#x27;ll also be given a set of practical exercises to complete in your own time and to help you to continue to develop your confidence beyond the session. Optional P﻿rep: bring in a 1-3 sentence summary of an idea you are working on or a play you have written. You&#x27;ll be able to refer to this during the session. Why is pitching important?A good pitch is about more than trying to sell your play; it’s also about making sure you have a solid idea that you are confident is well-developed. And it’s being able to speak about that idea with passion and conviction. It’s also about more than a few catchy sentences, you’ll need to be able to answer the questions, which will inevitably be thrown at you, with ease and clarity.There’s no doubt about it – pitching is daunting and can push even the most extrovert of writers out of their comfort zone. But it’s also essential if you want to get your work on stage! That’s where this workshop comes in…
