It鈥檚 been scary and challenging writing for online drama ... but mostly, it鈥檚 extremely exciting creating characters that are presented in different ways, and it鈥檚 great that I can proudly put my name to this monologue.
The Break series 1 was an exciting venture between , and 大象传媒 Drama Production to produce five original short monologues for online, written by up-and-coming BAME writing talent from across the UK.
Each short consisted of a standalone, contemporary individual monologue.
The selected writers were discovered through 大象传媒 Writersroom talent searches, development schemes and theatre partnerships. Twelve writers were invited to a one day workshop, after which they pitched ideas. Five were chosen for production.
With a spotlight on diversity, and the 18-30 audience, these shorts showcase writers with a strong, unique voice who have yet to write for the screen. acts as a platform for their creative work to be seen and shared. BAFTA Breakthrough Brit, is the director.
