I'm currently taking a Solo Performance Writing Class with Tanya. Only one class so far but I really like it and REALLY like her :)
Vanessa
Playwriting Class
Students may come with a seed-idea for a new play or be in the process of finishing or rewriting a first draft. Individual attention will help address each writer’s particular need. Students will have the opportunity to bring in pages each week to be read aloud. Structured feedback will follow. In-class writing exercises may jump-start the creative process. The small class size (5-7 students) will allow generous attention to each student.
Begins July 7th, six week session
Tuesdays from 6pm-9pm
Location TBA
Tuition: $425
Hurry! Sign up before July 1st and pay only $350 with this email.
