Aspiring Playwrights Writers Group 

PROGRAM DETAILS 

Perseverance Theatre is looking for 6 aspiring playwrights to join our new Aspiring Playwrights Writers Group! 

Whether you’re new to playwriting or looking to sharpen your skills, this 4-week group is designed to guide you from idea to finished script. Meeting once a week, we’ll explore the essential elements of a compelling 10-minute play through focused exercises, group discussion, and supportive feedback. Come learn about character, conflict, dialogue, and structure! 

Over 4 weeks, we will meet once a week to provide each other with support, feedback, and accountability for the culmination of a complete draft of a 10-minute play and a better understanding of how to shape theatrical stories for the stage. Come with curiosity, leave with a script.
