Workshop: Scriptwriting & Play Development

Have you ever wanted to write a play but don't know where to start?

Do you have a finished script but aren't sure about the next steps?

Join us for a fun and insightful afternoon where we'll discuss how to get started on a script, how to edit a script, how to promote it, how to market it, and so much more.

Attendees are encouraged to bring in a piece (10 pages or less) of something that they're working on. This will aid in discussions on feedback.
