Sitcom Mission 2023 finalists
Friday 9th June 2023
After a sell out at The Canal Café Theatre for the live performance of our longlist of scripts, we took in the public votes, the views of the actors and our own (the producers - Simon & Lawrence's) judgement and have decided that the 4 scripts going through to our Industry Showcase are:
Cole's Law - William Vandyck
Marketing 101 - Kalum Wilson
Please, Take A Seat - Tom Worsley
Top Gut - Tom Critch
Congratulations!
It was an incredibly tight call and we're sorry to see our other two scripts go:
Cerys Farnaby-Lockwood is Online - Matt Harrison
Ladies - Chloe Page
Comedy is subjective and we're sure these fantastic writers will have great success in their continued sitcom writing journeys!
Huge thanks also to our actors:
Alice Brittain
Michael D. Douglas
Jodyanne Fletcher Richardson
Monica Gaga
Rebecca McClay
Paul Sockett
Owyn Stephens
We're very much looking forward to getting these scripts in front of our industry and invited audience at The Museum of Comedy, Wednesday 28th June at 2pm.
If you're a producer/agent/commissioner or work in development and would like to come along, please get in contact via: info@sitcommission.com.
And if you're a writer and have been inspired to kickstart your own sitcom writing journey, get in touch! We offer year round feedback as well as courses for those starting out and a new Level 2 course, which we'll be releasing soon for those who have already written a sitcom, want to improve their writing and or need accountability and exercises to keep developing as a writer.
