Brush Up on D & D

1 of 4 Playwriting Intensives offered to professional and new playwrights who want to brush up on Diagnostics & Dramaturgy in order to continue to move your projects forward and how.

You are doing all this writing, and you think you've got a draft, but, before setting up a reading, how can you check to see if it's working? In this intensive workshop, we will go over ways to make sure your work can stand up to exposure. But this goes beyond a mere checklist! We will peer behind the curtain at how the literary managers, dramaturgs and directors look at new plays, so you can care for your own!
