After studying plays from contemporary playwrights, this course culminates in a performance of students’ original plays in a one-act mini play festival. Students will develop, write, and perform an original 10-15-minute play that will be staged with other students in the class (or from the Walker’s student community). Students will learn how technical aspects of the theatre can inform storytelling such as costume creation/selection, prop acquisition, and research, etc. Class will also include interactive theatre and improv activities to improve acting, playwriting, and team building.
