INK (a writer's collective) is performing 5 new short pieces all this week, all inspired by current news stories. Every day one of the writer's will also be writing a piece based on the newspapers that morning. I wrote mine yesterday and really enjoyed the experience. Sitting in the Tron bar for 5 hours trying to make a piece that is only 4 minutes, but has some kind of structure to it was BRILLIANT. If you missed it then here is the piece, maybe you fancy a read. It is based on a photograph taken at Prime Minister's Questions on Wednesday 18th May 2010. The photograph showed the arrayed benches of the new British government. An array of white middle aged men in dark suits, all except for a small rectangle around David Cameron where any ethnic minority or female MP that could be found was stuffed in. The perfect backdrop to Cameron's new politics.
