Lookout Point Supports National Theatre on New Writer in Residence Programme 2016/17 Lookout Point supports National Theatre on New Writer in Residence Programme 2016/17 Drama producer Lookout Point continue to highlight their commitment to developing and nurturing new writing talent by supporting the National Theatre on their New Writer in Residence Programme 2016/17. Anupama Chandrasekhar will take up the twelve month post in September 2016. Chandrasekhar, a Chennai based playwright, whose plays have been staged at leading venues in India, Europe, Canada, the US and the UK include Free Out Going and Disconnect which played at the Royal Court to great critical acclaim. Anupama said: “I’m thrilled and overwhelmed at the faith the National Theatre have placed in me. This is an unprecedented opportunity for me to learn, share, explore and grow. I’m sure the distance from my homeland will offer me new lenses with which to view my culture and history and the NT's support system will give me the freedom and focus to write the kind of plays I want to write. I can’t wait to get started on this new journey. “ This new programme will see Chandrasekhar begin a twelve month residency for the National Theatre’s New Work department led by Emily McLaughlin. Following this, she will work with Lookout Point’s award-winning team led by joint CEO Faith Penhale to develop TV script ideas. Anupama will follow in the footsteps of previous National Theatre Writer in Residence Mike Bartlett (Charles III, Dr. Foster, The Town) who is currently working with Lookout Point on the recently announced newspaper drama series for BBC1, Press. Lookout Point’s joint CEO Faith Penhale comments “We’re thrilled to be supporting the National Theatre and the incredibly talented Anupama on this exciting programme. Through this partnership we aim, not only to develop a strong relationship with the National Theatre and Anu, an exciting emerging writer, but also build on our reputation as a home for new, alternative and diverse writing talent.” Emily McLaughlin, Head of New Work at the National Theatre said “Anupama joins the National at an exciting time, succeeding Suhayla El-Bushra as the NT’s new Writer in Residence. I first got to know and understand Anupama’s potential through the work of Elyse Dodgson and the Royal Court’s International Department.This post is a brilliant opportunity for a writer to use the broad resources that the National Theatre has to offer and we are thrilled that Anupama will be our first international Writer in Residence.” Ends End Notes to editors: 1.

  • MASTERPIECE on PBS to Co-Produce “Press” Contemporary Drama Set in the Turbulent World of Newspapers Through New Deal with BBC Worldwide and Lookout Point
    MASTERPIECE on PBS to Co-Produce “Press” Contemporary Drama Set in the Turbulent World of Newspapers Through New Deal with BBC Worldwide and Lookout Point Pasadena, CA; January 15, 2017; Rebecca Eaton, Executive Producer of MASTERPIECE, announced today that Press, written by Mike Bartlett (Doctor Foster, King Charles III) and produced by Deep Indigo, Lookout Point and BBC Studios for BBC ONE, will premiere in the US as a co-production with MASTERPIECE on PBS, through a new deal with BBC Worldwide North America and Lookout Point. Press is an ambitious new series set in today’s newspaper industry — its past riven by hacking scandals, its present at the mercy of the digital age and the 24-hour news cycle, its future uncertain. Bartlett’s razor sharp and observant drama will explore the turbulent media landscape through the fortunes of rival broadsheet and tabloid papers and the very different and colorful characters who work for them. BAFTA award-winning producer Nigel Stafford-Clark, who has developed and is producing the show, comments, "At a time when both the nature and the role of the press have themselves become part of the news, there's never been a better moment to focus on this unique world as the basis of a major television series. And I can't think of anyone better to take that on than Mike Bartlett." Lookout Point’s Faith Penhale, Executive Producer, comments “We’re delighted to be working with Mike and Nigel on a series with so much contemporary resonance and relevance. And given the importance of this drama, it’s exciting to know that this tie-up with MASTERPIECE on PBS will offer significant exposure to audiences in North America on a network with an unparalleled track record in taking great British scripted content across the Atlantic.” Bartlett’s television adaptation of his Tony®-nominated Broadway play, King Charles III, will air on MASTERPIECE on PBS in 2017.

  • Modelling the Evolution of the TV Drama Production Sector in the UK
    CREATe Working Paper 18/01 (May 2018) Modelling the Evolution of the TV Drama Production Sector in the UK Author Richard Paterson University of Glasgow [email protected] CREATe Working Paper Series DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.1243769. This release was supported by the RCUK funded Centre for Copyright and New Business Models in the Creative Economy (CREATe), AHRC Grant Number AH/K000179/1. Modelling the Evolution of the TV Drama Production Sector in the UK Richard Paterson Abstract This exploratory paper considers the evolution of drama production companies in the UK against the backdrop of regulatory interventions (Paterson, 2017a). In so doing, it poses the question of what was it that made a successful drama production company as the context of tv production changed. A set of firm types of current drama production companies is established, the density of companies occupying this niche mapped, and the growing heterogeneity of firm types over time identified. Firms within these types are examined applying the fitness landscape methodology, developed for the analysis of organisations from complexity theory (Kauffman, 1993). This approach offers a dynamic conception of an industrial sector in continuous change responding to the technological, market and the endogenous factors with which firms engage. The adaptive walks of a set of companies within each firm type are plotted by examining a company’s reputation, their access to talent and their ability to secure commissions and raise finance for development and production. What becomes possible for a company at particular junctures – the adjacent possible - is variable, but as will be demonstrated routes to growth have tended to become normative once any innovation in organizational form is successful.
