Lizzie Hart wins film pitch award
BA Theatre and Performance Studies, 2024
Lizzie Hart has won the Comedy Production Award at The Pitch Film Fund 2025 Awards. Lizzie’s winning pitch, Kitty, is a laugh-out-loud romcom about a charismatic neurodivergent shop assistant grappling with her first crush, a treasure hunt, and the perfect jumper.
Luke Walton, founder of The Pitch, said: “In sixteen years of pitch finals I have never seen an entire panel in tears and roaring with laughter at the same time – when you are running a film fund Lizzie is the raw new talent you dream of finding. Combining that with bringing a genuinely unheard voice to the screen made for an exceptional pitch.”
Well done, Lizzie!
