Do you have a story to tell? A touch of the poet?
Are plays your scene?
Or are you struggling to find your voice…?
Wolsey Writers is here for you. We are a creative writing group based at New Wolsey Theatre, Ipswich. We offer a friendly space to let your imagination work; tips on how to improve; and encouragement to achieve your goals.
‘Humble, informative and inspirational – that is surely the success and key to Wolsey Writers.’
- We welcome writing in any genre.
- We welcome writers from diverse backgrounds.
- We welcome all levels of experience – and aspirations of every size, from haiku to blockbuster trilogy.
Wherever you are on your writing journey, Wolsey Writers can support and inspire you.
First established in 2015 as a backstage workshop, Wolsey Writers has had a superb 2021 reboot: we’re now officially part of NWT Creative Communities. This means more creative writing opportunities for people in Ipswich and Suffolk throughout the year; and a chance to share your work with an audience, as part of a community performance project (more details soon).
‘Coming at a time when I’m trying to write my first novel, these sessions have been invaluable.’
‘With only a week to go to my first professionally performed play at #INKFestival2019 I owe thanks to the brilliant #wolseywriters workshops that were run by the inspiring @katiewardwriter at @NewWolsey’
