On the 16th October 7.30pm, in a special free spin-off evening to the Dorset Scriptwriting Festival, writers and anyone interested in scriptwriting can enjoy work by local scriptwriters Sue Ashby and Craig White, delivered by their chosen actors, alongside film contributions from actors, playwrights and directors including Mark Rylance, Patrick Marber and Beth Flintoff. The evening will also feature a Q&A with festival director Ed Viney, where you can find out more about the next Dorset Scriptwriting festival in 2025, and how you can be involved.
The Exchange is hosting this event in partnership with Artsreach and Dorchester Arts Centre, and the event is free to attend, though booking is advised and donations to The Exchange will be welcomed.
The Bibbern Gallery Bar – currently showing a photographic look at Dorset landscape and wildlife by Marilyn Peddle – will be open from 6.30pm and for discussion after the programmed event.
Further information is available by contacting The Exchange on 01258 475137, or by visiting the Exchange website.

The next Artsreach event at The Exchange is an empowering autobiographical show by contemporary circus artist Poppy Plowman, on 29th November, with a tightwire workshop session available on the same day. The Exchange is immensely grateful to William Fox-Pitt and Alice Plunkett for a fascinating illustrated conversation about a glittering career in eventing presented to a large and enthusiastic audience, all for the benefit of The Exchange. The next fundraising event will be a Quiz on 24th October – why not get a team together and give it a go.
