Ladies and…um…ladies. We are heading to Birmingham this Monday 15th October for our Forum dinner.

Aimed at female directors, producers and writers in Birmingham, the Forums are focused, craft-specific meetups over dinner for no more than eight people. We want to create a space to allow women to think ambitiously and confidently about progressing in their creative career. Three female mentors connected to the local region will also attend the dinner, to share with the Forum their experiences and advice. These evenings will encourage women to talk about their own work, what career problems they might be facing and together you will set goals for the year. UnderWire mentors for the evening include award-winning director Penny Woolcock, producer Deborah Aston and writer Claire Bennett.

There is a cost of £20, with your meal and wine/soft drinks included.

You can read the latest update on the UnderWire Forums on their blog - http://thedcup.wordpress.com/.

If you, or someone you know based in Birmingham would be interested in taking part, email [email protected] for more details.
