This short workshop looks at the art of adapting stories for the stage and screen.

This short workshop looks at the art of adapting stories for the stage and screen.

It will look at how to translate prose into visual storytelling and the shift from how a novel tells you what happens inside a character to performance, where you show what happens in front of an audience.

The workshop is led by Pete Allen who, as a theatre director, had adapted the works of Heinrich Hoffman, Edgar Allan Poe and Stella Gibbons.
