Description
3 workshop sessions, a week of rehearsal, and 1 performance See your play come to life from start to finish by participating in a series of three writing workshops and the Green Shirt 10 Minute Play Fest.
How’s it work? Upon registration, you’ve reserved a slot in a three session writing. Over three Saturdays you’ll meet with the group for writing exercises, learn tips and tricks for writing 10 Minute Plays, read pages, and get feedback. Then a team of actors and directors will take your play and put it on its feet in the Green Shirt 10 Minute Play Fest with rehearsals starting on March 7 and the performance on March 15. The Commitment Writers are required to attend 3 writing workshops. Your first draft will be due on Mach 1 and your final draft is due on March 7. We hope you can also make the show on January 5 to see your work in action!
Attendance Policy
In order to get the most out of your work with us, our students should make showing up to every class on time a priority.
We understand that things do come up so if you know you’re going to miss a class, please give your instructor as advance notice as possible. This will help them get you caught up and not throw off the rest of the group. Scheduling a make-up class is possible but not guaranteed.
Cancellation Policy
Student Cancellation We keep our classes very small to ensure everyone gets the best learning experience. Since we only have a very small amount of seats to sell, it is very costly when someone reserves a seat, and then backs out when we don’t have enough time to resell that seat. We hope you understand! For Write A ten Minute Play, no refunds or credit will be offered if a student drops after the class has begun.
Studio Cancellation
Occasionally we’ll have to cancel a call due to low enrollment. We’re sorry if that happens to you! If we have to cancel a class you’ve signed up for, we will give you at least 48 hours notice and promptly start your refund process.
Space is limited!
This is a small class. Grab your spot before they're gone!
