Dramatic Writing for Stage & Film

These genre-specific writing workshops are for high school students who wish to explore a specific genre more deeply. We will read eclectic examples and learn writing techniques for exploration in the specific genre. You will write more than you thought was possible, and leave with a community of fellow writers.

Be prepared to share your work with the group, and give/receive useful feedback. Workshops will be on Zoom

Our daily schedule is three 90-minute workshops.

Each participant will meet individually, at least once, with their workshop leader.
