Writing and Directing Text for the Stage Workshop

Where are the lines drawn between writing and directing text? What’s more important: what’s written on the page or what happens in the rehearsal room? What determines the final text? Explore writing and directing text for the stage with writer/director Ed Viney ahead of his show, Pot licker.

Ed Viney has worked with theatres across the South West and nationally, including the RSC, Bath Theatre Royal and Bristol Old Vic. He recently received the Creative Scotland Four Nations Award and is the Festival Director of  The Script’s the Thing, which last year saw over seventy scripts being presented, linking with venues across Dorset and organisations including BBC Writersroom and National Theatre New Work.
