Tim Price is an award-winning playwright and screenwriter.<\/p>\n
I studied English Literature and Philosophy at Cardiff. The philosophy course changed my approach to life in a fundamental way and I continue to draw from it professionally, emotionally and spiritually.<\/p>\n
I was taught by Tim Rhys who suggested I keep writing after graduation. It was this conversation that set me on the path which led me to become a professional playwright and screenwriter.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
I have worked on\u00a0primetime television shows such as Eastenders <\/em>and Switch\u00a0<\/em>while my plays have been staged at the Royal National Theatre, the Royal Court theatre, Traverse theatre, and National Theatre Wales.<\/p>\n
I am delighted to be able to make a living out of a creative life. Quite often, I don’t have to wear anything other than my pants and a novelty hat (just because I can). I never take a single day working as a writer for granted.<\/p>\n
I am incredibly conscious that I am where I am because I have had the good fortune to have met people like Tim Rhys, and others in the industry who encouraged, mentored and supported my development as a writer.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The two companies I have founded in Wales aim to help emerging playwrights. We take theatre to unconventional spaces such as kebab shops, yurts and forests.<\/p>\n
I’d urge anyone who is considering coming to Cardiff to go for it – it is an excellent city to get lost and find yourself in. My time there allowed me to discover writers and ideas that have shaped who I have become.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tim Price is an award-winning playwright and screenwriter.","protected":false},"author":904,"featured_media":613,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69,71],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-607","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-arts-humanities-social-sciences","category-english-communication-philosophy"],"meta_box":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/607","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/904"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=607"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/607\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2107,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/607\/revisions\/2107"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/613"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=607"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=607"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cardiff.ac.uk\/alumni\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=607"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
