Steve Waters examines how the very idea of film has defined him as a playwright and a person in this book. Through the the lens of cinema, it provides a cultural and political snapshot of life in Britain from the 2nd part of the 20th century up to the present day. The films spanning almost a century, starting with The White Hell of Pitz Palu (1929) and moving most recently to Dark Waters (2019), each chapter examines aspects of Waters's journey from his working-class Midlands upbringing to working in professional theatre to living through the Covid epidemic, through the prism of a particular film. From The Wizard of Oz to Code Unknown, from sci-fi to documentary, from queer cinema to world cinema, this honest, comic book offers a view of film as a way of thinking about how we live. In doing so, it illuminates culture and politics in the UK over half a century and provides an intimate insight into drama and writing.

Europa brings together four European theatres: Birmingham Repertory Theatre (UK), Dresden State Theatre (Germany), Teatr Polski Bydgoszcz (Poland) and Zagreb Youth Theatre (Croatia) – and four leading playwrights from each country – Steve Waters (UK), Lutz Hübner (Germany), Malgorzata Sikorska-Miszczuk (Poland) and Tena Štivicic (Croatia). This revelatory piece of theatre sets out to explore the possibilities of collaborative playwriting, to produce a single work that is multi-authored and multi-lingual. Drawing on first-hand accounts, including memories from the 1930s up to the present day, the playwrights have collaborated to overcome language barriers and weave their separate languages into one single dramatic entity. The resulting play engages with increased levels of debate about European identity versus national identity. This edition features both the multi-lingual and the English text, and has an introduction by the dramaturg behind the project, Caroline Jester.

A compelling 10-part drama about the founding of Israel, told through the parallel voices of a Jewish immigrant and an exiled Palestinian1917. As the British enter Palestine with the aim of facilitating a Jewish homeland, young Arab Youssef Bannourah befriends Harry Lister, an English civil servant who has come to live in his village of Deir Yassin. Impressed by Youssef''s intelligence, Harry finds him a job working for the British administration. Meanwhile, fleeing Jewish persecution in Russia, Miriam Cohen and her mother Sara set sail for the promised land. On arrival, they move to a newly constructed kibbutz near Jerusalem, where - divided by faith and a fence - Miriam meets Youssef for the first time.Both dream of a nation where Jews and Arabs can live together in harmony. But their youthful idealism soon turns to disillusionment, and as tensions rise and violence erupts in the holy city, they become embroiled in political upheaval and terrorism. And for naive, well-meaning Harry Lister, Britain''s inability to keep the peace - and her promises - will have fateful consequences...Spanning 31 years from the closing days of the First World War to 1948, this epic, multi-perspectival drama is narrated by an older Miriam and Youssef, who recount the story to their children. Moving seamlessly between past and present, it takes in key figures and pivotal moments in Israel''s history, including the Balfour Declaration, the 1930s Arab Revolt, the bombing of the King David Hotel and the UN vote to partition Palestine.Written by acclaimed playwright Steve Waters, Miriam and Youssef takes a nuanced look at the turbulent chain of events that led to the birth of the State of Israel, shedding fascinating light on the ongoing Israeli/Palestinian conflict. Among the diverse cast are a host of top Middle Eastern and British actors, including native Israeli Shani Erez as Miriam, Egyptian-born Amir El-Masry as Youssef and Londoner Blake Ritson as Harry Lister.Production creditsWritten by Steve WatersProduced by Radio Drama London for BBC World ServiceMusic written and performed by Glenn SharpSound design: Caleb KnightleyCastMiriam - Shani ErezYoussef - Amir El-MasryYoung Miriam - Ava Merson-O''BrienYoung Youssef - Rafi Essex/Jo Ben AyedYoung Zahra - Nikhita EssexHarry Lister - Blake RitsonSara - Jessica TurnerAbu Khalid - Rami NasrUmm Khalid - Sirine SabaMahmoud/Menachim Begin - Daniel RabinYehoshua - Philip ArdittiBen-Gurion/Rabbi - Elliot LeveyMufti - Dana HaqjooMajor Dennis/Haganath Major - Clive HaywardZahra - Lara SawalhaJudah Magnes/McMasters - Neil McCaulMusa Alami - Sargon YeldaMohammed - Ramzi DehaniPalestinian woman - Nathalie ArminWith Heather Craney, Hasan Dixon and Steve WatersOther parts played by members of the castFirst broadcast BBC Radio 4, 29 April-1 July 2020©2021 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd (P)2021 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd

From Jimmy Carter''s optimistic visit to Tehran in December 1977 to the trial of the state''s enemies in 1979, this nine-part drama tells the story of the Iranian Revolution, where protestors took to the streets in support of the exiled religious leader, Ayatollah Khomeini, and the Shah requested help from an America already torn apart by its own conflicts.In a time of hope, of tyranny, of change, of oppression, in a tale of power, betrayal and fear, this true story will transport you to the 1970s, when the Iranian Revolution would change the world - forever.Featuring Dame Diana Rigg (Game of Thrones, All Creatures Great and Small), Bijan Daneshmand (The Night Manager, The Boy from Aleppo that Painted the War) and Carolyn Pickles (Broadchurch, Land Girls).Cast Narrator - Diana RiggThe Shah - Bijan DaneshmandPresident Carter - Nathan OsgoodThe Ayatollah Khomeini - Selva RasalingamZbigniew Brzezinski - Sam DaleWilliam Sullivan - Tony TurnerFarah Pahlavi - Nathalie ArminRosalynn Carter- Carolyn PicklesNassiri - Peter PolycarpouMehdi - Moe Bar-ElHaikaz / Sadegh Ghotbzadeh - Philip ArdittiGary Sick - David SeddonWarren Christopher - Don GiletMolly - Saffron CoomberSharpour Bakhtiar - Peter PolycarpouGeneral Gharabaghi / General Oveissi - Vincent EbrahimCarole Bauman - Clare CorbettSadegh Khalkhali - Bhasker PatelEbrahim Yazdi - Paul ChahidiHassan - Amir El-MasryJoan - Alexandra ConstantinidiIraj - Ashley KumarAhmad - Ronny JhuttiAmir - Dana HaqjooShirin - Afsaneh DehrouyehNargess - Sara ZeymourProduction creditsWritten by Steve WatersComposer- Ghanvar KhaleghiSound Design - Caleb KnightleyProduced and Directed by Marc Beeby''Exactly the type of drama at which the BBC excels'' GuardianOriginally broadcast January-March 2019©2022 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd (P)2022 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd

A guide to the hidden workings of plays and the trade secrets that govern their writing - by the acclaimed playwright Steve Waters.Drawing on a wide range of drama, both historical and modern, Waters takes the reader through the key elements of dramatic writing – scenes, acts, space, time, characters, language and images – to show how a play is more than the sum of its parts, with as much inner vitality as a living organism.Almost uniquely amongst accounts of playwriting, Waters' book looks at the ways in which good plays move their audiences, generating powerful emotional responses that often defy conventional analysis.The Secret Life of Plays is for playwrights at any stage of their career, and will inspire and inform drama students as well as working actors and directors. Most of all it is for anyone who has ever laughed or cried in the theatre – and wants to know why.'Theatre is a live medium, about bodies, sweat and feeling, even if it is informed by ideas and reason. How a thing composed of words manages to carry within it the currents of energy that generate that impression of life is what I want to explore…' Steve Waters 'Steve Waters' book is like his plays: clear, elegant and stimulating throughout' David Edgar

Moving from satiric comedy to poignant family drama, Little Platoons explores what the retreat of the state and the growth of people power really means for society and its youngest citizens.When Rachel's ex threatens to remove their son from London to sort out his education, she joins a local group of parents setting up a 'free school'. Her new friends, led by the charismatic Nick, want to create an education their children can enjoy not endure. But the vision of the Big Society they seek to create tears their lives apart. Steve Waters' play Little Platoons was first staged at the Bush Theatre, London, in 2011.
