Lightspeed and self-pimping.

Hey everyone,

I'm Dylan Wilde. Writer, Procrastinator. If anyone would like a thrilling autumn read this year then head to the Kindle store on Amazon and search for Lightspeed: 299,792,458 m/s-Fiction by myself and edited by Christopher Moriarty. It's a book for a thoroughly jaded and disaffected generation.

Also, I am extremely interested in providing my services on local projects as a writer/script consultant/proof reader so please feel free to contact me…

The Weekender is a four-day event (though I only made it to 2 days) run by Hide & Seek, a game design studio who, according to their website, are 'dedicated to inventing new kinds of play'. They worked with National Theatre Wales on …

Theatre West is casting the second production in its autumn season at the Alma Tavern Theatre Bristol.



Fee £300 per week. Bristol base required.



Rush by David Lane



I’ve watched you all for hundreds of years. Spying on the shores from the shallows. You dance, laughing and throwing your heads back to the sky, but I’m there - observing, watching your smiles from the surface. I see what everyone misses.’

Carys lied to George. George made up stories about Carys.… Continue

screens and headphones

Giving myself a little time and distance to reflect on the realities of our run of Coriolan/us last month, I have been spending some of my days slowly reviewing and combining the continuous camera and headphone feeds that we generated and broadcast live within the work – and which were captured and recorded on the evening of our penultimate performance.

Revisiting the details of these mixes, as they formed and unfolded in real time, I have been consciously avoiding the…

Devoted and Disgruntled contd..

There were lots of really absorbing and thought-provoking conversations at Devoted and Disgruntled this weekend - all conducted with a great deal of thoughtfulness, honesty and generosity of spirit. All in all it was a really inspiring weekend hosted beautifully by Improbable. One of the last sessions confirmed that there's still a lot for us to talk about and a wish to have more opportunities to do so. So I thought I'd let you know that Lucid will be taking this forward and organising a…

Home-made trailers

Made some very short trailers for my Kindle (or Kindle app) downloads; once again raiding the Prelinger Archive for material. An invaluable source of public domain video, audio, texts etc.

Hanna Slattne on my script Think of a Name For It

A thoroughly enjoyable read of what should turn out to be a thoroughly enjoyable play if you are lucky enough to get a production.

Very brave to take on this material: a hostage situation, a gun waving around and a bunch of fairly unlikeable anti-heroes stuck in a room together – yet it is all carried off with a delicious sense of underplay and irony that makes the play charismatic even if the characters in themselves are not.

My brief and pretty much only criticism is Ms…

Agents / Representation

Hia all! 

I am just doing a little market research at the moment, and would be really helpful if you could give me some feedback for the research. 

I'm keen to find out: 

How many of you have got agents out there?

Are you struggling to find an agent?

Are you with agents in Wales, or have you got representation elsewhere?

Do you feel there's room for a new agent in Wales?

Any experience, good or bad, with…

Scurlock Moany Blog 3

At the end of septemberThe Paget Rooms in Penarth are putting on ‘The 39 Steps’ based on the West End comedy re-invention where only 4 actors play up to 150 characters. I’ve wanted to go and see this in London for the past two years but thanks to privatised rail fares, extortionate hotel prices and £50 a pop for tickets to the show, I’ve sort of held off a little up to now.

This might be an interesting show for any of you that want to extend your acting range and want to see how…

Opportunities for actors as part of Artes Mundi 5

Motherfucker

Written and Directed by Miriam Bäckström

 

Motherfucker is a relationship drama oscillating within a labyrinth of roles, positions and perspectives. A female director (female actress) asks a male actor to forge a character.

"Surprise me," the director commands the actor.

"Sure, just tell me what to do," the actor replies.

Two actors, a man and a woman, sit in chairs facing each other on a stage, surrounded by…
