Imperfect Storms: New Work from East Anglian Writers
09 Oct 19:00
Select a performance
Another show of exciting new writing by East Anglian members of the Writers Guild of Great Britain. Between them the writers have credits in TV, film, theatre, radio, fiction, comedy, poetry and video games. As ever the evening promises to be diverse and full of surprises. These are works in progress, fresh off the printer and presented in a rehearsed reading.
Previous shows have featured singing highwaymen, zombies looking for love and a theme park whodunnit. Scripts that have gone on to be developed with Arts Council England funding, include Lovedale by Fiona Padfield, which will be touring in 2026, and The Highwayman which premiered at Norwich Playhouse last year.
The evening will again be curated by writer-comedian Stephen Keyworth, whose credits include The Princess Bride and The Man Who Fell To Earth for Radio 4 (Winner of the New York Radio Awards Grand Tower Trophy).
The WGGB have been representing and campaigning for working writers since 1959. This showcase is supported by Norfolk County Council and Norwich Theatre’s Creative Development Programme.
“The Writers’ Guild is a bright spot in a dark world, and I feel very grateful to it.”
Tom Stoppard.
