Emerging playwrights collective Writers on the Brink are proud to present a rehearsed reading of six short plays at the Lantern Theatre Liverpool on Thursday 2rd3 October at 7:30pm.

This pick-and-mix of exciting, new drama will be given a script-in-hand performance by professional actors alongside up-and-coming acting talent.

Six budding writers have been working with acclaimed screenwriter Julian Perkins (Murphy’s Law, Casualty, Images of Tiffin) and North West literary agent Diane Culverhouse (Culverhouse Associates) to develop their plays to industry standard.

Funny, absurd, sad and heart-breaking the stories will take the audience on an unforgettable journey featuring tales of UFO swimming pools, a lothario lover, a corpse in a coffin, one foul-mouthed, geriatric swinger, relationships on the brink and devious, murderous doctors.

It’s Play Time will be directed by Margaret Connell who is the Artistic Director at Lantern Theatre Liverpool.  Margaret is excited to work with Writers on the Brink and present work by six new voices:

“We are very excited about this collaboration with Writers on the Brink; this is exactly the kind of development we hoped for when we came to The Lantern. It’s fantastic to have Julian and Diane on board supporting the development of new writing in Liverpool.  Audiences are in for a real treat.”
