I just checked and you are right the free tickets are members only but they have general audience tickets for £7.50 online (wouldn't show up on my smartphone as an option however). They do say they would answer general audience questions at the end but you would have to sit through the whole session I would imagine. I'd go if I were in London but alas am stuck across the pond! :(Jenny Allworthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08518779478842699970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8833418224175267236.post-32972969122597826412015-12-01T08:34:19.400-05:002015-12-01T08:34:19.400-05:00Jenny, I tried to get a ticket but it seems to be ...Jenny, I tried to get a ticket but it seems to be a membership only session where they are critiquing young writers' screenplays, rather than talking about their own work.
