Through writing exercises, discussions of published plays, and workshops where writers receive feedback from the instructor and their peers, each playwright will write a short play and have the opportunity to hone their acting skills in dramatic readings of others' plays. The course will culminate in a reading (with invited guests) of our plays in progress.
