Overview
Beto O’Byrne, Wednesdays, 6pm—7:30pm
6 weekly sessions beginning July 8
A continuation of Playwriting I. Students will go from writing a short play or scene to attempting to write a full-length script. You will be guided through advanced writing exercises and reading of plays, and through in-class feedback and sharing, students will leave class with either a draft of a new work or significant portion of a completed draft. Come prepared to share pages, and are required to either supply their own printed pages or share material in a shared GDrive folder. Students must have taken Playwriting I as a prerequisite or must be preapproved by the teacher (submit request and short writing sample to IAC via email).
