WRITERS ON MONDAYS

WRITERS ON MONDAYS
A Survivor's Guide to Scriptwriting
Join us for a panel discussion with three experienced scriptwriters for stage and screen. Peter Cox created and wrote the indie hit TV series The Insiders Guide to Happiness as his MA thesis in 2005 and has worked in television ever since. Kelly Marshall, in NZ to share her expertise with the 2014 MA Script workshop, has an extensive and award-studded background in writing and script editing for television in the UK. All-round scriptwriting guru Dave Armstrong (whose play Rita & Douglas enjoyed a sold-out run at Circa earlier this year) has won the Chapman Tripp Theatre Award three times, and worked on many hit TV series. They compare notes on the highs and lows of the scriptwriter's life with chair William Brandt.
Writers on Mondays is presented with Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, the New Zealand Centre for Literary Translation, and National Poetry Day.
