SCRIPT presents: 

UNEARTHING THE BOMB: WRITING POLITICAL THEATRE

Alan Pollock
Alan Pollock's recent play One Night in November wove real events and personal testimonies with political speculation to examine questions of truth and choice in wartime.  This workshop will explore the use of research and documentary elements in popular drama.  How much truth, and how much art should be employed?  What do we mean by 'political' theatre? What kind of resources exist for the political writer?  A day of provocative discussion and practical exercises.
Venue: The Courtyard Theatre, Hereford
Cost: £50 (£45 concessions)
To Book: Download a booking form from www.scriptonline.net/stage.html and send, together with your payment, to:  Script, Unit 107 The Greenhouse, The Custard Factory, Gibb Street, Birmingham, B9 4AA
