Improvisational Playwriting

In this workshop, participants will discuss laying the groundwork to develop a script through improvisational collaboration. Topics include: finding collaborators, character development exercises, and improvisational methods. Playwrights, bring an actor you’d like to work with. Actors find a playwright and join us. Can’t find a partner? Come by yourself and we’ll match you up.
