British Society of Comedy Writers

www.bscw.co.uk
The British Society of Comedy Writers is pretty much what is says on the tin: a society of British writers, mainly of comedy. Some of us write for TV, some for radio, some for anything or anyone who’ll pay. Some write game shows, others scripts, still more, gags. Most will try their hand at any type of funny you can suggest. Yes, we’re a pretty diverse bunch. What we share is a love of writing comedy, and what tends to get termed ‘light entertainment.’ Oh - and a love of a drink or two in the name of networking. Whether you’re a keen writer, or a producer, editor or talent scout, looking for writers, we’d love you to join us in spirit by becoming a member or subscriber, or in reality at one of our events - for a gin and a joke, a lager and a laugh.
