This is an old class! Enjoy the notes, and check out the current courses.
Be a playwright, maker of plays.
The first session of this basics-of-playwriting class will include playful writing exercises with a focus on characters and conflict. Exercises will include guided free-writing, monologues and dialogue. We will also cover standard play formatting during the first session.
During the second session each student will bring their original 10-minute play to class (from guidelines assigned in the first session) and hear the play read out loud for the first time.
Bring a pen/pencil and paper/notebook. (No laptops, just good old fashioned pen and paper.) No experience necessary.
Like all the rest, this class meets at 515 Court Street, Brooklyn. This is a small, hands on workshop; space is super limited!
