Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this writing class:

So many actors want to write but are unsure how to start. Others are intimidated. But why should that be? Many of the skills needed to write – understanding how dialogue reveals character, how scenes are structured, how the action of the play reveals the truth of the story – are skills every good actor already has. This class will teach actors how touse the things they already know to write dramatic literature. We will start with guided exercises to help develop each writer’s voice, then move on to monologues and scenes. Your final project will be a one-act (15-25 minutes) read by actors in the Barrow Group community.
