Take Me If You Need Me

Synopsis:
Love affairs, illicit meetings involving a prostitute, a soldier, a chambermaid. . .The Play, Pie and a Pint offering is a modern take on Arthur Shnitzler's classic La Ronde - a play written in 1897 but not performed until 1920 when it caused an outcry because of its sexual content. And now the same themes are to be explored in this re-working by 10 post-graduate television writing students in Take Me If You Need Me. The young writers are all studying at Glasgow Caledonian University on a course sponsored by SHED Productions, the company behind TV hit Waterloo Road.

Notes:
co-written with fellow Glasgow Caledonian MA TV writing graduates
