Check out this short video on what some of the audience thought of 'The Writers' Room'! As it makes it's London tour from Belfast this summer.
THE WRITERS' ROOM
by Michael Shannon
This fast paced, hilariously dark one act play is a comedy thriller from young up-and-coming Irish writer Michael Shannon. With witty and intelligent writing Shannon keeps the tension rising and the jokes coming as the world around these writers unravels.
Once a week, four very different writers meet up to rip apart each others work. Kirk can't quit setting his stories in space. Sweet M.T.'s one-woman show is missing a good monologue. Ryan hasn't the guts to confront life on or off the page. And Beth is desperately searching for an ending.
Today when they arrive for their meeting a script is sitting on the table waiting for them. It's called 'The Writers' Room'. It's about four writers, has a dead body and not many pages left.
It appeared first at Pop-Up Pick 'n' Mix at the Brian Friel Theatre, rehearsal room in June 2011. Then at the London Festival Fringe at the Phoenix Artists Club in July. The Camden Fringe at the John Gielgud Theatre in RADA in August and finally the Belfast Fringe at the Baby Grand Theatre in the Grand Opera House in October.
