Join Governor General Award winning playwright Caleigh Crow for an afternoon of prompts, tips, and conversation. Whether you’ve put pen to paper or not, come as you are. All you need is an idea! Participants will spend two hours writing, sharing, and jamming on ideas.
Who Can Attend?
The ideal participant is at any stage of their practice but is probably not a first time playwright, and definitely is someone familiar with theatre generally. The participant may or may not have a draft, outline, or idea for a play, but the earlier in the process the better. Playwrights with completed drafts may find some utility in the exercises, but the focus of the workshop is getting ideas onto the page for the first time.
The ideal participant is curious about solo shows, puppets & mask, performance art, interdisciplinary performances, devised work. The writer may or may not be the performer.
