The collaborative scriptwriting for “Michael’s Resignation” went so well that the natural progression was to write another drama to follow it. At the time of our first draft, around 70 writers created a 93 page script with over 20,000 words, and more just kept registering. The same theme kept getting repeated over and over in emails and messages - “i wish i could have written more for it.” So, i devised another story, and it looks like we’ll making this the 2nd in a series of 5 based around life-changing events that happen duing the “credit crunch”.

This time our anti-hero character April is going to do the opposite of Michael, starting off as a baddie and going on a rampage of good.

Here’s the overview:

“A self-obsessed bulimic fashionista (April Heartley) who finally loses the Covent Garden styling boutique she has been using to fund her lavish lifestyle because of the “credit crunch” tries to kill herself and is unexpectedly rescued by the tramp she abuses every day. After waking up in hospital and learning he is gravely ill, she embarks on a desperate race across London to find him and save his life in return, and in doing so, sets off a chain reaction of events that forever changes the lives of everyone around her.”

The next one is tentatively called “Aidan’s Darkest Sermon” and about a holier-than-thou local ex-alcoholic vicar who murders the prostitute he accidentally sleeps with out of maddening jealousy and obsession.
