Writer

Team of writers sought for a piece of site specific theatre in 2013.

I'm looking for a team of writers to join me in creating a piece of site specific theatre to take place in London next year.

The play will be set and performed in a large building, and will take place during the early hours of a zombie apocalypse. We will follow several bands of survivors holed up on different floors of the building, their conversations fears and escape plans, and our audience get to choose which group they stand with, or could even wander between them. Each group will have their own plot, though obviously they may cross paths, accidentally foil each others ideas, and cause even more chaos, especially as the creatures begin to enter the building and they are forced to flee.

This kind of project has never been done before, and is an exciting opportunity for anyone looking to help create something unique. It will be immersive, it will be frightening and most of all it will be fun.

Each band of survivors will have their own writer. This is a collaborative new writing project, so we'll be working together to ensure the different groups interact, and there will be key unifying events which will affect everyone in the building, but for the most part you will be telling your own story with your own characters and your own ideas.

I will be running this as a writing competition, looking for between 3 and 8 writers.

If you're interested in taking part, please send me a sample of your work. This does not have to be a piece of theatre, nor does it have to be in the horror genre. Send in whatever you feel best demonstrates your suitability for the role.

If have any questions or would like any more information on any part of the project please don't hesitate to get in touch, I'm more than happy to talk to potential writers.

Send your samples and questions to contact@sandynicholson.co.uk

Thanks for reading,
