St George’s Players
Writers Group
A relaxed, supportive space to try your hand at playwriting, hear your words out loud, and develop original stories.
Getting word on paper
The SGP writers group meet monthly and is open to all levels and experience. We meet to go through short scenes or scripts together and it is your chance to hear your piece out loud, perhaps for the first time, and to use this to become a better writer.
We give encouraging but meaningful and useful feedback and try to be a welcoming environment for trying something new – if you’ve never written anything before but fancy a go at playwriting we could be just what you’re looking for.
The production of ‘SOAP’ (2024)
Showcasing Our Work
Twice a year we put on a “Scratch Night” of the group’s new material but we are always looking for new ways to showcase our work. It is a fantastic opportunity to see your writing jump from the page directly onto the stage.
A Significant Milestone
In 2024, SGP put on a new play by SGP Chair Mark Harrington as one of our two productions that year; a significant milestone for our amateur writing group and, we hope, inspiration to you to get involved with us and see how far your writing could take you.
Get Involved
We are enthusiastic amateurs and welcome anyone with an interest in writing. No experience or finished masterpiece required.
