Ep 9 – Stefanie Moore – The Mentoring Experience – The WFTS Podcast
We talk to Stefanie Moore, writer of Blue Lines (performed at Greater Manchester Fringe Festival 2019).
Stef applied to The Hive for a mentoring opportunity, supported by Arts Council England. Tim Firth was her appointed mentor. We talk to Stef about the experience: about the process of being mentored, as well as how to be a good mentee.
We talk about how to take feedback and how to develop a script from the initial idea, up until it goes live in front of an audience.
Presented by Mike Heath and Stephen M Hornby. For more information about WriteForTheStage, go to WriteForTheStage.co.uk. To follow Stephen on Twitter, search for @StephenMHornby and @Inkbrew.
