THEATER CAMP FOR WRITERS
If that sounds like fun to you, then we're guessing it probably will be! Whether you’re an introvert, extrovert, or something in between, this workshop is designed with you in mind.
Our topics will include:
improv for writers (no performance required)
scene work w/actors for your story in progress
dialogue and dynamics
thinking like a director/actor on the page
presentations, readings, and school visits
walking office hours
and more, depending on group interests
FEELING SHY?
To be clear: This is a hands-on writing workshop with a theater overlay. No theater experience is necessary here, and no performance skills (or performing) are required. Then again, you might surprise yourself.
WHY THIS WORKSHOP?
Developing ideas and first-drafting? Improvisation. Bringing characters to life on the page? Acting. And how many times have you imagined a story in progress as a movie you're directing?
In which case, what do these disciplines have to teach us, as writers? That question is at the heart of Theater Camp For Writers.
Whether you're noodling new ideas, have a manuscript in progress, or just want to have some fun looking at writing in a new way, join us for this three-night retreat on the Highlights Foundation campus in Honesdale, PA.
