Playwriting
Theatre is the oldest form of dramatic storytelling, and many still consider it the most electrifying. Nothing beats the intensity of actors sharing the same air as the audience. The laughs and gasps and tears happen live. On the spot. And a play can be staged anywhere, from an empty space surrounded by folding chairs to a plush Broadway house. In this One-Day, you will learn how to tell a story that is theatrical and produce-able as well as such playwriting craft elements as structure, plot,, character, scene development, and dialogue. You will also learn how and where to market your work.
