FelsTED Talks - Alecky Blythe

In this episode Felsted Head Chris Townsend talks to Old Felstedian, Playwright and Screenwriter, Alecky Blythe.

Alecky is best known for her pioneering work in verbatim theatre, a form of documented theatre in which plays are constructed from the precise words spoken by people interviewed about a particular event or topic. She has written several plays, including the acclaimed 2011 musical London Road and her first play ‘Come Out Eli' won a Time Out Award. Alecky’s most recent work ‘Our Generation’ is described as ‘An epic coming-of-age drama that's too extraordinary to be fiction​.’ and is currently on at the National Theatre until April 2022.
