Are you a Novelist, Playwright, Screenwriter, Poet? Love to write but don't know how to start? Seeking a community of creatives?
Write a 10-minute play in 10 weeks and develop your creativity and storytelling in one of the most ancient and dynamic genres.
Intro to Playwriting is a 5-week course designed to introduce you to the essentials of theatrical storytelling. By the end of the course, you’ll not only have a written your own 10-minute play, but also a deeper understanding of your unique writing style.
In this course, you’ll learn how to craft a compelling story, develop dynamic characters, find your authentic voice, and write specifically for the stage. While geared toward aspiring playwrights, the storytelling techniques you’ll gain are valuable for writers of any genre and experience level.
Upon completion, you’ll have the opportunity to join the supplementary 5-week Playwriting Workshop where you can collaborate with peers, exchange feedback, and refine your 10-minute play in a supportive, creative environment. This is often the favourite part of the course and where the most growth happens.
