[Capdist-auditions] Playwriting class (fee required)

[Maizy Broderick Scarpa]

PLAYING & WRITING: THE FUNDAMENTALS OF DRAMA

w/ BLOOM Creativity

MAR 8 -May 3  1:00PM–4:00PM
Led by Maizy Broderick Scarpa, this 8-week course introduces the
fundamentals of playwriting through exercises, tools, and practices that
engage with the “play” of playwriting. Each class will focus on a building
block of drama (dialogue, setting, character, etc), and will include
in-class writing, discussion, and group feedback. Writers will leave with a
variety of play-making exercises, scenes, and their own ten-minute
play. *Playing
& Writing *is the perfect foundation for new writers (or new-to-playwriting
writers) itching to dive in the deep end. It is also appropriate for
seasoned writers looking to kick-start their creativity in a supportive
community. Particular attention will be given to cultivating an environment
– internally and in the wider group – that fosters support and creativity.
Participants are expected to complete weekly writing explorations outside
of class hours.
