Currently affiliated to the Department of Theatre and Performance at the University of Huddersfield, pending a Fellowship, Judith is developing her own and their projects in word and body collaboration. She has written extensively for radio, new media and site-specific performance over her ten-year career. The BURDALANE Project, centred at the University, intends to create and tour a full ensemble production of Judith's first award-winning play. The West Yorkshire Playhouse has commissioned a main house dramatisation of Winifred Holtby's SOUTH RIDING for 2010 and recent radio work includes versions of Akutagawa's THE BAMBOO GROVE and Susanna Clarke's MRS MABB and an original play based on Charlotte Bronte's confession in a Brussels Cathedral at the time of Villette's biographical genesis: I BELIEVE I HAVE GENIUS. The original production of VILLETTE at the Sheffield Crucible was Judith's first professional commission.

Synopsis: | It is Enrolment Night in 3007 and Bradford University set in a landscape wasted by human and natural devastation, now exists only under the protection of a sky-blue Bio-dome classed Universe City which is dedicated to Sir Edward Appleton, discoverer of the Ionosphere. Those seeking asylum in the bio-dome must sign up for a lifetime (and beyond) of unusual commitment to its core mission statement: Be Useful. On this particular night, however, there are alarming distractions: strange bursts of static from invisible back-rooms and an unidentified bolt of light hurtling towards the Bio-Dome which has something to say. | |||||
