Scheduled concurrently with THEATRST 380S-1 Playmaking for Writers: Collaboration from Page to Stage (Professor Neal Bell, 128 Bryan Center John M. Clum Seminar Room).

Dramatic writing - for stage, screen or film - is not meant to be read, like a novel or poem - it's meant to be performed. In this class, students collaborate with students in the companion section (Playmaking for Writers) to explore the 'liveness' of dramatic writing as actors and directors. Semester ends with public presentation of the work that's been written and brought to life on stage by the class.
