 The Scriptwriter Seminars based in Waterford Central Library have been ongoing for the past six months. In association with Push Pull Productions these workshops were set up to invite new scriptwriters to discuss and share their own work. The seminar participants have written short scripts that will be performed in Central Library by a cast of Waterford based actors. A wide range of dramatic and comedic material can be expected from this new writing, exploring matters such as love, revenge, secrecy and obsession.
