Course requires that students develop a full-length script through a series of writing explorations that aim to develop the material from different points of view. Students will experience various written and collaborative exercises to deepen their understanding of story and situation. Play readings from a variety of styles and genres increase student understanding of the range of approaches to playwriting. Concurrent enrollment in New Plays Workshop provides a performance workshop for students to develop their writing in collaboration with actors and directors.
