Literary Agent:    n/a

John Chambers divides his writing, more or less equally, between Theatre and tele. His first stage work was produced by Pan Theatre in the early eighties and he's consistently returned, by choice, to write on the Manchester fringe ever since. He was Arts Council Resident Dramatist at L.T.C. for a couple of years and Resident Writer at M6 Theatre Co. He's collaborated with quite a few other writers (see play list). John has had 40 odd plays produced ranging from number one tour, lots of rep in the Northwest to profit share one-handers and commissioned Theatre School and Youth productions.

Look, The

Look, The
a young, bright woman who, in spite of her Audrey Hepburn looks, is trapped by her past. Her disillusioned tutor in popular culture sees her talent - and a way for them both to make it big. It's a three-handed musical Drama, with poetry chucked in. Whilst it owes a lot to Sartre / de Beauvoir it hopefully gets the contemporary zeitgeist.

Rosie's Magic Horse

Synopsis:
A brand new production based on the book written by Russell Hoban and illustrated by Quentin Blake. Little Rosie collects ice-lolly sticks and puts them in an old box. As Rosie dreams of helping her parents pay off the bills her stick collection dreams of becoming something greater. At the stroke of midnight magic and dreams collide and a horse gallops out of the box! His name is Stickerino. "Where to?" he asks. "Anywhere with treasure!" she answers. There begins an adventure like none other: ice-lolly mountains by the sea, caskets of gold and scurvy pirates. A heart-warming tale of aspiration, friendship, adventure and a little bit of mischief. This is the perfect treat for everyone aged 3 and up.

Music and lyrics John Chambers. Book by Ollie Fielding. Based on the book "Rosie's Magic Horse" by Russell Hoban
