Alice Birch, playwright and screenwriter behind breakout successes Anatomy of a Suicide, Lady Macbeth and Normal People, has opened up about the experience of being a writer.
“Writing is how I make sense of the world”, Birch explained as she delivered a lecture as part of BAFTA’s 2024 Screenwriters’ Lecture Series.
“I want to say something about what it means to be human. The banal and sublime in every moment.” – Alice Birch
