Overview of class

This class is a collaboration between the MFA and advanced undergraduate directing students and the MFA playwrights. Students in this advanced writing class will workshop a complete draft of a play limited to 50 pages in length. The full draft will be read out loud in class and the directing students will workshop and present scenes from the play the following week . The purpose of this class is to learn how to build and nurture the playwright/director relationship in the development of new work. This relationship is among the most important in the theater.
