A website for the screenwriter as an aspirational young woman.

"Antonia Hare is one of the funniest, kindest, and most comedically unique writers I’ve had the pleasure of working with. So I’m never working with her again, because it makes me look worse, and I don’t have the emotional maturity to handle that."

- Grace Brighton-Hall, co-creator of Purgatory

ABOUT ME >

Did you know that in Australia, only 21% of writers are female? That in writer's rooms across America, women only make up 1/4? That in Great Britain, only 11% of writers for television comedy are women?

Help me change that. Help me create comedy stories about women. About diverse women. Universal stories that warm your heart and make you laugh.

Work with me today.

Purgatory

Writer/Producer

In between Heaven and Hell, there sits a place of waiting. A place of judgement. A place where the deceased go to find out where they will spend eternity. This is a show about the idiots who make that decision.

Purgatory is an upcoming sitcom webseries created by Antonia and Grace Brighton-Hall that looks at the people who hold your fate in the afterlife in their hands.

EDUCATION

LGBT Issues/Characters: as a gay woman, I want to give my people in the community happy and true stories written by someone like them, particularly the young people that may encounter my work.

Comedy: I like to laugh, and I like to make others laugh. My works help me do that. I tend to have a more absurdist comedic tone, without the characters or plots straying too far from the realm of reality.

Coming of Age: personal growth, and that transition from youth to adulthood is timeless to me, and can be told in so many different ways.

Female Focused Stories: I find girlhood & womanhood so complex and challenging, and I love exploring how different women at different stages in life handle the situations life throws at them.
