The Second International Screenwriters' Festival takes place from Tuesday 3 to Friday 6 July 2007. The four days are divided into two sections; 3-4 July is for ‘Rising Talent’, while 5-6 July is aimed at ‘The Professionals’.

The festival is dedicated to the art, craft and business of writing for the screen, bringing together professional industry delegates, high profile guests and new talent from around the world. Confirmed speakers include Diana Ossana (Brokeback Mountain), William Nicholson (Gladiator) and David Hare (The Hours).

You can still take advantage of the ‘Early Bird’ ticket system: tickets are discounted until Friday 22 June.

All events, unless stated, are in the Festival Theatre which can accommodate everyone, but events held in the Manor House or Marquee are limited on numbers and delegates will be admitted on a first come first served basis on the day.
