Writing for the Stage & Screen With a Social Voice

     Aspiring playwrights, screenwriters, and composer/lyricists will explore the process of creating an original work that will Stage a Change. 

Topics will include:
• Finding a story to tell 
• Clearing source material 
• Structuring your story 
• Assembling a creative team

     Using new dramatic works as examples of writing with a social voice, we will write and explore how to (and not to) approach writing dramatic material with a social voice.
