Steve Waters is a renowned playwright whose diptych of plays on climate change, The Contingency Plan, are amongst the most celebrated plays tackling the subject.
Upon its showing at the world-famous Bush Theatre in London in 2009, it was was labelled “an urgent wake-up call” by The Guardian, “a stunning theatrical knock-out” by The Daily Telegraph and “the first and best British play on climate change” by Time Out."
Steve's other plays include A Vulnerable Place (2014), Temple (2015) and Limehouse (2017). His works also span radio and TV, including the award-winning audio series, Fall of the Shah, as well as Miriam and Youssef, which were both aired on the BBC World Service.
Alongside his playwrighting, Steve also ran the MPhil in Playwrighting at Birmingham University between 2006 and 2011, and is now Professor of Scriptwriting at the University of East Anglia, where he convenes the MA in Creative Writing.
