Looking for an intensive playwriting class in Seattle? Miriam is teaching this Yearlong in Playwriting class at Hugo House. Here’s a little about it & a link for more info:
This class is a combination of learning and doing: Through reading plays, interactive conversations, writing exercises, and workshops, you’ll learn how to engage with texts both on the page and on the stage. You’ll also learn how to write your own play with performance in mind.
The first half of the class will focus on the fundamentals of playwriting: we'll study craft elements, read scenes, write from prompts, and critically analyze texts. The second half of the class will focus on writing, rewriting, and the “art” of playwriting: we’ll work on our full-length plays, give and receive feedback, and workshop ideas as a class. We’ll also see two live shows together and engage in critical discussions about them.
Leave with a comprehensive understanding of the art and craft of playwriting, a budding relationship to the playwriting community, and a full-length play.
