There’s a unique magic in writing a two-hander. Two characters, one space, and no distractions — just dialogue, subtext, and the emotional tightrope that binds them. It’s the most intimate of theatrical forms, and also, in many ways, the most exposing. There’s nowhere to hide — for the writer or the characters. I’ve always been drawn to that naked intensity. With just two voices in the room, you’re compelled to dig deeper into what drives them: their needs, flaws, secrets, and longings....

In an era when theatres are tightening belts and companies are looking for creative ways to do more with less, the virtue of plays with a small cast is clearer than ever. As a writer, director, and teacher, I’ve seen firsthand how two- and three-hander plays generate not just lean productions but rich, emotionally charged storytelling with laser focus and intensity....

Silence is where the subtext lives. If you’re having trouble making a scene work, consider replacing a line with a silence. Find our more in our latest blog.

Some information about the upcoming playwriting summer school. And if you book before Sunday 22nd June, you'll get free access to our popular Finding Starting Points short-course (usually £25).

Playwriting summer school?! Does the word school send shivers down your spine? Perhaps it takes you back to coughing your way through surreptitious ci******es around the back of the bike sheds? Or maybe you think of end of term discos and love bites you desperately try to stave off with toothpaste?....

As well as on all the streamers, my album is available to listen to and/or buy on Bandcamp, where you can download in lossless and keep forever.

In the heart of a bustling factory, amidst the rhythmic hum of engines and the clanking of metal, there lies a machine that possesses a secret passion. Hidden beneath its cold, mechanical exterior beats a heart that yearns for music.
