Writers’ Block and Apples and Snakes will host a series of one hour challenges at Writers’ Block. These will include ‘Make a sketch in an hour’, ‘Make a performance poem in an hour’, ‘Make a zine in an hour’, ‘Make a play in an hour’ and ‘Make a (short) novel in an hour’. Each challenge will be led by an experienced team leader – including Rebecca Little and AJ Garrett from the Peg Powler gallery, Andy Berriman from Hoist the Rag, performance poet Poetry Jack and up-and-coming writer/director Jamie Jackson, who has directed plays at Theatre Royal, Northern Stage and the Gala Theatre - and we’d like as many people as possible to turn out and take part – before the results are presented at Blu Bar as part of the evening showcase!
