We are thrilled to reveal the talented participants selected for STORYHOUSE LAB, a groundbreaking development initiative supported by Screen Ireland, Fremantle, Element Pictures, Coimisiún na Meán, and Cultural & Creative Industries Skillnet.
This lab is dedicated to supporting emerging screenwriters by providing them with mentorship, industry connections, and the creative guidance needed to bring their original projects to life.
After receiving over 350 applications, the 13 chosen participants represent a diverse group of voices and fresh perspectives, all with narratives set to captivate and inspire. Each project tackles bold, unique stories that highlight the richness of contemporary storytelling.
The writers will be mentored by Malcolm Campbell (What Richard Did, Herself). In Malcolm’s own words: “I'm really looking forward to meeting this year's group. Their projects are fantastic - bold and funny, personal and provocative. I can't wait to get into our Lab to develop them further.”
