One-Act Playwriting Course

Have you always wanted to try your hand at writing, but would like some guidance along the way? Perhaps you have an idea for a story that you just have to get out of your head and into the world. Maybe you're a poet or a prose writer who wants to experiment with drama. 

Join our introductory playwriting short course. Over the six weeks of this course, you will craft your own one-act play of about 10-15 minutes in length. You will get a firm introduction to story structure, character, dialogue, and setting.

Taught by award-winning playwright and dramaturg Frankie Regalia, this course is aimed at helping beginners develop their writing skills. The classes will be practical, with a combination of exercises and peer feedback, and an extensive list of resources will be available to all participants who want to take their studies further. Take part and discover a love of writing!

If Frankie thinks your play would be suitable for our full-time Acting students, you could be seeing your work on stage next year during our Festival of One Act Plays!
