Beth Flintoff

Redrafting

Congratulations! You’ve written a play (or most of it?) - an amazing achievement! Now what? Beth will take you through the process of honing and reworking your script, taking a fresh look at what your play is really about, and giving you tools to get the feedback you really need. This will be a supportive, practical workshop, with some time for writing, exercises and discussion, so please bring a project you are already working on.

Beth Flintoff is a playwright, dramaturg, and theatre-maker. She is an Associate Playwright at the Royal Court Theatre in London and an Associate Artist at RABBLE in Reading. Her published plays The Glove Thief, Rebellious Women and The Ballad of Maria Marten are regularly performed around the world. The Ballad of Maria Marten has toured the UK three times, been translated into several languages, and in 2024 it was NHB’s second most frequently performed play around the world.
