April last year, Writer Zac McKeown submitted his first piece "What I Wish You Knew" to the Scratch Network and had it performed by @joshfitzsimmons99 and directed by @zarzarmb. Zac then went on to turn this heartfelt monologue about a son visiting his father's grave with regrets into a powerful short film starring @bobbyschofield93, which we all watched to kick off the One Year Anniversary Celebration in Feb at @royalcourtliv. It's now been submitted to film festivals and had fantastic feedback, huge congrats to Zac for taking that first step last year and getting his work off the page! 👏 . . . #filmfestivals #shortfilm #whatiwishyouknew #liverpoolscratchnetwork #liverpooltalent

"Souvenirs" was a piece written by El Atkinson @elatkinson.creative and directed by Zach Holzberg @hack.ary This was a reworked piece that El had taken to the Edinburgh Fringe last year. It's a story about self acceptance, internalized ableism and what happens when queer love, autism and women in their early twenties crash into each other! Cast: El Atkinson, Kamil Ali @kam.j.ali and Eli Yim @noteliyim 👏 . . . #edinburghfringe #scratchnight #queerlove #royalcourttheatre #liverpoolarts
