Playwriting Workshop: Virtual

This 5-week session provides an opportunity to develop that idea in your head into a script, or hone and develop your current play-in-progress. Playwriting format and essentials will be covered in the first class. Both group and individual feedback is offered to writers throughout the workshop.
