I’m delighted to be part of the inaugural Epsom & Ewell Arts Festival this June! There are oodles of activities to choose from including music, art and literature.
I’ll be running a couple of screenwriting workshops. One for children, one for adults.
First up for the kids…
THE HERO’S JOURNEY – YOUNG SCREENWRITERS’ WORKSHOP
Author and screenwriter Mark Stay
Join professional screenwriter Mark Stay for a fun workshop where we’ll look at the ‘Hero’s Journey’, how one page of script becomes a finished scene, and we’ll create our own story using ideas and methods explored during the session. .
Mark Stay wrote the screenplay for the film Robot Overlords, released in 2014, starring Gillian Anderson and Ben Kingsley.
Robot Overlords is set in a world where Earth has been invaded by an occupying force of robots from another world. Every citizen has an implant in their neck that alerts the robots if you step outside. You get one warning… then you’re vaporised!
Suitable for ages 10-12.
Epsom Library, Learning Centre.
Mark will be signing copies of his original novel Robot Overlords after the event.
