Title: The Play Wot I Rote!
Post by: Alski on 04 September, 2012, 12:34:14 PM
I know it's not comics, but I wrote a one act comedy play which was performed last night in Weston-super-Mare.

I found that writing comics helps with doing dialogue.

Hope you like it (20 minutes long)

I've often thought that some of the best moments I've enjoyed in comics have been closer to theatre than they ever have been to film, so I suppose I wasn't surprised that you might say this.

Y'know...  Far more importantly, I think the one just after #17 is a favourite of mine, too... but that [spoiler]"Spar prices for you, then"[/spoiler] line is a corker.

I have a theatre company of sorts: honest.

I wrote 'Spinal Krapp' here:

and directed 'love, peace and robbery' here:

http://www.irishtheatremagazine.ie/Reviews/Current/Love--Peace-and-Robbery (http://www.irishtheatremagazine.ie/Reviews/Current/Love--Peace-and-Robbery)
