LPW Online Workshops: LGBTQ+ Writers Drop-in

Throughout LGBTQ History Month this February, we’re bringing you selection of Zoom workshops! You can come to all of them or they work as standalone sessions too, check out the full listings on our Eventbrite page.

To celebrate LGBTQ+ history month, London Playwrights is holding an LGBTQ+ writers drop-in. For those wanting to write works that reflect LGBTQ+ experience, or simply for LGBTQ+ writers who want a space to talk about their ideas and connect with other LGBTQ+ creatives. We will have some structured discussions, but also offer space for you to lead conversations and connect with one another. (Please note this is designed as a space for LGBTQ+ identifying creators to connect so we would ask those registering to be aware of and respect this).

Led by Emily Garside, an academic who specialises in LGBTQ+ theatre, and member of the LGBTQ+ community.
