Using the novel “The Ones With Purpose” by Cynthia Jele as the starting point to inspire writers, Twist Projects invites writers from across Africa to a week-long writer’s workshop, where they receive mentoring and feedback from other writers, directors and actors as they hone their craft. The result is six finely-tuned short scripts that explore issues of love, loss, family and responsibility from the perspectives of six very different writers. Join us for the recorded readings of these scripts and a facilitated discussion with the writers.
Script mentor: Kobus Moolman
Directors: Roel Twijnstra, Daniel Maposa and Emma Durden
Writers: Gabriella Pinto, Gideon Wabvuta, Mbasa Tsetsana, Ncumisa Ndimeni, Tammany Barton and Tosin Tume
