About Dave

I wrote and directed my first play in 2003, while still a student. Since then I have directed my own work at theatres including the main house of the Hackney Empire, and worked with other professional theatre directors on productions at venues including Riverside Studios, the Cockpit and the King's Head. After transitioning to the world of film, I shot my debut feature film as director, Passing Through, in 2019, with a name cast and Emmy-winning cinematographer. It had a festival run in 2023 and is due to be released on broadcast and streaming platforms soon.

Whatever stage you're at in your screenwriting or playwriting project, I'll help you pick apart the script, uncover problems and find solutions. We can talk characters, dialogue, story structure and the practicalities of staging or filming your work. It can start with you sending me your work in progress, or we can start with a blank sheet of paper and think about how your idea can best be brought to life. My approach to writing is something like Charlie Parker's "learn the changes, then forget them" approach to jazz: think technically, think about structure, break it down, then try to forget it all and channel your instincts. If you're a complete beginner we can start by looking at the underlying principles of storytelling or the technicalities of things like script formatting, and think about the relationship between a writer and their writing and what you personally want to get out of your work. If you've written previously for the stage and want to cross over to screen, I have experience of both and can help you understand the different approaches you might want to take.
