ASPIRING writers have collaborated for the first time to perform under the roof of Darwen Library Theatre.
'Honour and Reputation' will be staged next Wednesday at 7.30pm and features work by a creative writing group whose members meet weekly at the theatre.
Under the guidance of collaborative writers Norman Warwick from Rochdale and Pam McKee of Pickup Bank, the event was spurred by Blackburn principal arts officer Rob Howell.
Pam said: "It was a daunting task. We met with about half-a-dozen writers of all ages who had never met one another before.
"But they soon became great friends of ours and we decided that we would each write individually, in any format we wished and on any subject that interested us.
"Only when we had written a brief text, be it story, song or poem, did we collaborate. Gradually we edited those works into a cohesive piece about the eve of the execution of Anne Boleyn."
Tickets costing £5 and £3.50 for concessions are available from the theatre box office.
