The Play’s the Thing: a four-week digital workshop for ten-minute plays
Good news: it can be anything you want it to be! It just has to be something.
This four-week digital workshop is committed to turning your idea into something — an actual play script. We’ll clamp down on what we like about basic structures for a ten-minute play, and then we’ll get into the fun stuff:
- How words absolutely matter, and also how they don’t matter at all
- How your play looks with no budget, and also with an infinite budget
- How to refine your best ideas, and also how to write without a clue
There will be more covered, too, as well as opportunities to read and discuss scripts in class.
It’s gonna be a good time. Let’s do this thing.
