HOME PAGE SYNOPSIS TRAILER STILLSAngela Pell - In Her Own WordsSnow Cake is the first thing I've had produced! A long time ago I was a performance poet and had a book published... but I used to get so sick with nerves before going on stage that I had to stop!! I've written sitcoms and films over the years with other people - and as my husband is a TV producer, I've had the opportunity to read 100's of (really awful!) scripts. This is the way I have learnt my craft... I think when you read BAD stuff it gets your imagination working overtime on how you would do it differently... much better than reading published scripts of great films... how can you improve on them??!! I teach my 7 year old son (who is Autistic) at home... we have been doing the American 'Son Rise' Programme with him for 4 years now…which is a play based programme... consequently I spend all day tickling, chasing and dressing up as monsters/ghosts/ Spiderman etc. God its tough!!! Henry and I have been together for 15 years. We met when I was at University in Manchester - at a poetry group called The Live Poets Society. We now live in Brighton England and I taught Drama to Deaf kids and Young offenders for 7 years before we had Johnny. Angela Pell - WriterSNOW CAKE is Angela's first screenplay.
