After two successful editions of our Rewrite Stuff Programme (feature-length film and HETV in 2025 and HETV Series in 2026), we wanted to do something different and were particularly keen to explore genre again. We are therefore thrilled to announce our upcoming comedy workshop with Northern Ireland Screen, which will hopefully be the first in a series of genre-focused events.

This live online workshop is scheduled to take place early November 2026. It’s aimed at experienced storytellers (writers, directors, producers, creators, showrunners, story editors — anyone creatively involved in the script development process) with or without a comedy project in development.

For more information and to apply/register (by the 18th of September 2026 at noon), please check out the workshop page.

This comedy workshop is funded by Northern Ireland Screen.
