David Malcolm Hutchinson was born and raised in Stirling, Scotland. From a young age it became apparent that he was interested in the performing arts, and wanted to pursue a career related to his love in film and stage. In 2006 he began training at the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts on the BA (Hons) Acting degree. In his time at LIPA he would train in acting and musical theatre as well as developing his skills in directing and writing. His first writing success came in 2008 when Sell a Door Theatre Company produced his debut play "The Secrets Inside" at the Stirling Tollbooth Theatre and The Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Following this, David penned a musical adaptation of a number of William Finn's musical numbers from "Falsettos", "A New Brain" and "Spelling Bee" which was work-shopped and performed, in house, at LIPA. In September 2008 David was accepted onto the Liverpool Everyman Young Writers Course where he would hone his writing skills under Literary Director Susanna Bell. David's next play, titled "Planning Permission" goes up at the Unity Theatre, Liverpool in May 2009.

Synopsis: | Planning Permission is a twenty first century comedy looking at the prejudices and stereotypes that still plague modern society. Set in a remote, Yorkshire village - six community councilors preside over whether they should back a new proposal for a video drive in, made by local business man Danny. But as the narrative unfolds, it becomes apparent that there is more to be decided than just the proposed video drive in. Cheating and adultery plague the apparently decent individuals, whilst jealousy and compassion fills the church hall to the ceiling. As the vote nears, it becomes more than a vote for the community. It becomes a vote for justice, a vote for righting the wrong doers and it could change the landscape of the six peoples lives dramatically. | |||||
