SCRIPTWRITING: Sitcom, Comedy Drama, Sketch Comedy
I can help you develop your sitcom/ comedy drama concept, script and pitch. Writers I have worked with on their scripts have had a TV comedy drama commissioned by Australian channel Stan, a comedy drama script commissioned by Channel 4 (which I then script-edited), a sitcom pilot broadcast on BBC Radio 4 (that I also script-edited) and have been amongst the winners and shortlisted writers in the BAFTA Rocliffe comedy writing competition.
Other clients have had comedy plays at the Edinburgh Fringe and Soho Theatre (that I script-edited and directed), have won Sitcom Mission and have had a commissioned sitcom on Channel 5. I also ran the Yellow Door script competition with BCG where the winners are having scripts developed by Lucy Lumsden and myself, to pitch to channels. I can also work with you on your sketch comedy writing.
