The online course is now sold out
Every Thursday evening from 7-9pm for 9 weeks.
€300/ €100 deposit required to secure place
We would require that the balance is paid by Monday 16 March.
THIS COURSE WILL NOW BE TAKING PLACE IN AN ONLINE FORMAT.
Changes to the existing course:
- The course will be 2 hours a week instead of 3
- We are increasing the amount of one-to-one feedback each participant will have
- We will set more exercises than usual during the week
- We will be assigning more readings
We have taken these measures to ensure that the quality of the course remains high. We also require participants to preferably have a laptop as the sessions will take place via Zoom, and we will be using the screenshare option which is not ideal on a phone.
Each course participant is immersed in a range of ideas and exercises designed to develop useful skills in writing for live performance. These include: Openings, The Playwright’s Imagination, Plotting, Alternative Structures, Characterisation, the Rhythms of Language and Dialogue. Each course member is encouraged to develop their own idea through the course into a finished draft. As well as developing playwriting skills the course aims to broaden conceptions of what is achievable in live performance and encourage practical considerations of successful staging.
If you have any special requirements in accessing the course, please let us know as soon as possible by emailing Chandrika at [email protected]
