Welcome To Claire Lyne's Writing

What's the latest?​

 

Although Claire hasn’t added any scripts or stories for a year, she hasn’t been idle. She discovered Front Room, a theatre space in Weston-super -Mare which hosts a variety of events including great family shows. Claire approached Adam, one of the founders, to investigate the possibilities of having ‘Mimm and the Lost Friend’ produced and was hopeful it could happen. Adam put forward a few suggestions and ideas started to take hold.

 

The main suggestion was to consider using puppets for the characters. Although the image of Punch and Judy didn’t appeal to Claire, The Muppets fought their way through and banished Punch and Judy. Over the last few months, the script has seen a lot of changes and investigations led her to Puppet Place in Bristol. This is an active centre of creativity, an important centre in the South West, and focuses on the creation of puppets in all shapes and sizes.

 

Embarking on puppet related workshops and talking to puppeteers, Claire has been learning new skills to help develop her play., she said “This recent leg of my journey has been very interesting and extremely enjoyable. Theatre has crept up on me and is taking me on a path I didn't expect, it provides possibilities that can set your stories free.”

Hopefully this Easter themed play will be ready for Easter 2027.
