“GOT DRAMA?”\"Got<\/a><\/strong>
\nCOURSE ON WRITING FOR THEATRE<\/b><\/p>\n

As a continuation of the writing courses Control N has organized so far (First Draft – screenwriting, First Season – television screenwriting, Punct… – creative writing), Got Drama? is setting up the basis of writing for theatre.<\/p>\n

The course addresses all interested in theatre dramaturgy, with or without previous experience. For 8 weeks, the participants will go through the stages of building the structure of a theatre play, resulting in a piece that will be part of their portfolio at the end of the course. All the resulting text will become the basis of a public reading, by professional actors.<\/p>\n

Under the guidance of playwright Mihaela Michailov, the course has a strong practical side, all participants will receive individual feedback on the texts developed during the course.<\/p>\n
