Theatre Writing Course in London with Simon Vinnicombe - Few Spaces Only Remaining
An advanced ten week course presented by scriptwriting development company Master Raconteur for writers wanting to complete a new full length play.
A ten week course for writers wanting to complete a new full length play.
10 days 60 hours These 10 weeks and any following workshops will follow the same format as most University MA Theatre / Playwriting courses. Simon has taught MA Theatre for several years.
Each session will explore a new element of theatre writing from structure, narrative, dramatic action, dialogue, character, stage directions and form. We will also explore a new text each week and workshop new pieces of work from course participants. Some of this work will be set by the course leader and some will be a continuation of your own work/play. The course will also incorporate at least two one on one tutorials with a view to helping participants towards creating a full length new play.
It’s recommended that you have some experience in writing for theatre, whether on a previous course or at University. This course is focused on helping you complete a play you can be proud of and ready to submit to theatres.
There may be a follow-on 10 week course which will workshop and move your play forward.
