Film, TV & Theatre

We represent both established and up-and-coming screenwriters and playwrights, creating acclaimed and successful work for cinema, television, theatre and new media. Our stable of writers includes BAFTA, Emmy and Olivier award-winners working on both sides of the Atlantic. The department is also highly skilled in negotiating the sale of screen and stage rights to the books we handle.
