Calling all comedic voices in Birmingham, this is your chance to shine
ESW Winner Tonya Campbell
A NEW scriptwriting initiative to find burgeoning comedy writers from the Black community has been launched in Birmingham.
The comedy writing competition, Amplified, aims to provide a platform for witty writers from minority backgrounds and enable them to be seen and heard by the TV and film industry.
The competition, brought about by Transition Stage Company, will be broadcast via live stream or pre-recorded, depending on Covid-19 regulations, and members of the audience can vote for their favourite writer online.

The successful writers will then be selected by an esteemed panel of judges to receive a free script-writing masterclass.
