Flow. Play. Write.

Flow. Play. Write. Is a new project initiative from the Axis Keep It Lit literary Department to develop more local playwrights in the Ballymun Area. Led by dramaturg Krystal Sweedman, this project is open to writers and theatre makers of all ages and stages of their playwriting journey from Ballymun and the surrounding areas.  

The group meets weekly to discuss craft, share work and build connections with other writers from Ballymun and the surrounding areas. Currently it is attended by a mix of first-time playwrights, writers from other genres and experienced theatre makers. Each session includes discussing a play, plus writing prompts and exercises to get the ideas flowing. Once a month attendees are invited to share what they've been working on. It’s a supportive group environment for writers to hear their sample read aloud and receive robust and encouraging feedback. 

The next series begins in September, if you have any questions, please feel free to email: flowwritecreative@gmail.com

Participants say: 

“The workshops are such a supportive and safe space to explore my creativity - I've found them very fulfilling” 

“Flow has helped me identify myself as a writer and an artist for the first time“
