Playwriting workshops with Bernard Kops
Bernard Kops is one of the best known and most admired playwrights of his time. He achieved recognition with his first play The Hamlet of Stepney Green. Since then he has written more than forty plays for stage and radio, nine novels, seven volumes of poetry and two volumes of autobiography.
'Bernard Kops has a unique place in British Theatre. His work is zany and lyrical, his imagination and dialogue spark wildly and unpredictably like firecrackers, and the values that permeate his writing are Jewishly irreverent. His autobiography 'The World is a Wedding' (is) one of the most moving, honest and beautifully written I've ever read.' Sir Arnold Wesker
Bring a play you are working on, or ideas for a play you have yet to write. If you need help with dramatic dialogue, structure or are just looking for inspiration Bernard will help in the relaxed and supportive atmosphere of The Bakehouse. Bring a pen, paper and an open mind. Bernard is an inspiration. Two excellent new plays were written as a result of his last visit.
Book early to avoid disappointment! Ring 01557 814196 or email bookings@thebakehouse.info or chryssalt2@aol.com. Cost £30. Cheques in advance to be made payable to The Bakehouse.
