Playwriting

Playwriting

Spring Semester | Mar. 9th - May 18th

(Off Spring Break: April 6th)

Wednesdays | 4:30 - 5:45pm

Grades 5th-12th 

ONLINE - VIA ZOOM

In this semester-long class, we will craft compelling stories and build your own theatrical worlds through this playwriting workshop for aspiring writers, actors and lovers of theatre. Using writing prompts and other interactive games and activities, students will learn to write dialogue, set scenes, create characters and communicate emotions through expressive language. Students will create their own monologues and get to rewrite the end of a play. 

*Since this class will be taught through Zoom, participants will need to have access to email, a reliable internet connection, as well as paper and pencils for the in-class writing exercises.

Even if you have taken playwriting before, this class and its lessons are a great way to keep flexing your writing skills and creative skills.

Class/Camp Cancellations must be completed 1 week prior to the first day of Class/Camp. Full refunds will be given to those who cancel within that 1-week period via their original form of payment. If canceling within the week of class/camp, a 15% deduction will be processed for each late cancellation day (Ex. Class starts on Saturday, but you cancel the Sunday before, a 15% deduction will be applied, if canceling on Monday a 30% deduction will be processed from your refund, etc.). Please allow 5-7 business days for the refund to be issued.

We reserve the right to cancel any Class/Camp at any time, and if we do so will issue a refund via the original form of payment.

Online Policy:

If you have technical difficulties the day of (i.e trouble logging into zoom, internet issues, etc.) we ask that you provide proof of the issue by taking a screenshot of the error code, connectivity issues, etc. Youtheatre will determine on a case-by-case basis if you are eligible for a refund. The more proof you provide the better your eligibility. Please note that if you're enrolled in a multi-day program such as a class or camp, full refunds will not be given, but rather a pro-rated one if we find you are eligible. We will not provide refunds due to technical difficulties without PROOF. Appeals can be emailed to admin@fortwayneyoutheatre.org
