                        The Prize

                        Picture

                        For some making it to the Olympics is literally about life or death.  Take the inside track into the true stories behind Olympic success.  An amazing and highly theatrical journey of sacrifice, tragedy and touching humour   towards the  ultimate 'Prize'.



                        July - September Murmur and Live Theatre present The Prize at Live Theatre and then at Underbelly for the Edinburgh Festival.

                        I have been a scriptwriter since about 1998 when my first play Killing Time was performed at Theatre Royal Windsor.

                        Since then I have written at least a dozen plays as well as spending two years on Eastenders and writing several screenplays.

                        I now teach scriptwriting at Northumbria University where I set up the Drama and Scriptwriting Programme in 2005.

                        On this website you will see samples of  my work a record of performances and publications as well as some self indulgent reflections on scriptwriting and storytelling (see the blog where there are links to a couple of articles) - at least that's the plan - work in progress at the moment!
