Playwriting Workshop
Ansvar Community Hub, Circus Street, Brighton, BN2 9AS
We’re starting weekly Playwriting Workshop in central Brighton. These workshops are for non-professional writers and non-professional actors, so if you’ve never done anything like it before but want to give it a try, come along!
These workshops will be an incredible place to hone your craft, connect with other writers, develop some new bits of writing, and share your work in a low-stakes setting with a supportive peer group.
Over the five weeks we will throw ourselves into some creative writing exercises and use these exercises as a springboard to discuss playwriting essentials. Flexing our creative muscles deepening our writing practice. There will also be the opportunity to connect with actors from the Brighton People’s Theatre community, and a chance to share your work on the stage at one of Get-Togethers which happen 3 times a year.
Each workshop has been designed to fit into a lunch break and hopefully give you the chance to have a creative adventure into whatever you are currently working on in the middle of the day.
When: Wednesday lunchtime. (It is possible to drop into these sessions as each one will be standalone, or you can book all six.)
