Meet the Agents

In association with the Writers' Guild, join three top literary agents working with playwrights, screenwriters and authors in conversation with Chris Taylor, Director, New Writing South.

Find out if and when you need an agent, exactly what agents do and how they can help your career.  Find out how to approach agents, when to send unsolicited scripts and learn what agents relay look for when they take on new writers.  The evening also offers an informal opportunity to network and ask your own questions.

These events are very well attended, so be sure to book your place early!
