Pipeline is our series of events to help support writers and new work in Poole and the wider area.
Our Pipeline Social events, held monthly, are informal sessions in the Sherling Studio and hosted by a writer for the purpose of networking, chat (both from the writing and performing point of view!) and other performance write-ly things! Other events, which are open to all, include presentations of new work, usually script in-hand, that bring writers and actors together. These include Pipeline Remix and Pipeline Rapid Response. We also present Pipeline Masterclass with acclaimed playwrights, screenwriters, actors and all those involved in the making of new work.With the exception of Pipeline Socials which are more suited to writers and those with a professional interest in making new work, we are always looking for a general audience or those with just curiosity about writing for performance.
Events are always free but we welcome donations to support the development of new work.
With our script in-hand presentations of new work, you can expect drama, comedy, experimentation, suspense, emotion and invention – though not necessarily all in the same script! After the pieces have been performed, there is an informal opportunity to give feedback to the writers and have a drink.
We are always on the hunt for new material. If you have a piece that you would like to put forward, please use the button to get in touch.
Pipeline is run by Lighthouse Poole in association with Dorset Scriptwriters.
