Review: Nicole Burley scriptwriting workshop

Nicole Burley is a director and script writer who offers workshops to Drama and Performing Arts students. Nicole studied English and Classics at Bristol University. She worked as a young company director with the Rose Theatre in Kingston while working as an assistant director in London. She enjoyed writing plays for the young company and decided to go to Falmouth University where she did a Masters in Professional Writing. She is currently working on screen projects.

Nicole came to college to work on our students’ devised pieces for BTEC Level 3 National Foundation Diploma in Performing Arts Practice. The students had a plot, characters and a scene structure and a performance style – juke box musical. Each class had put together a shared PowerPoint so that Nicole had something to work from.
