Rapid Response

About our events

New for 2024, our Rapid Response scheme offers writers a creative challenge to respond to CFT’s Festival 2024 productions. Open to amateur, aspiring and early-career writers alike, get inspired by the work on our stages and generate an original response.

List of Events

  1. Two midwives in white smocks, white caps and blue blouses stand against a green and white wall. The midwife on the left holds two newborn babies, they look like twins. The midwife on the right holds one newborn baby with dark hair. They both look down caringly at the babies.

  2. A black-and-white-photo taken on the crowded steps of Chichester Law Court. In the centre, two young men in stylish suits walk down the steps, holding their hands in front of their faces to block the camera. Around them, women in 1960s hairstyles and coats look up at the two men, some with excited expressions. On the left stands a stern policeman in a hat, with two more policemen and photographers in the background.
