Playwriting as Memoir

Learn how to transform personal life stories into dramatic works for the stage in this engaging class. Explore the differences between memoir and playwriting, and discover how to combine them into a meaningful piece for live theatre. The course will include short video presentations, writing exercises, and group discussions to help you uncover the story you want to tell. Your work will be read aloud in class, with constructive feedback provided to guide you toward finishing a draft of a 1-act play or a section of a longer work by the end of the 5 weeks.

New Mexico Actors Lab
Hey Kids! Let's Put on a Play!
NMAL Founder Robert Benedetti is offering three classes that will follow the development of a production:
1. Play selection, production and design concept, auditions and casting.
2. Rehearsal process, experimentation, stage management, design coordination: sets, lights, costumes, sound, props.
3. Final rehearsals: technical and dress, opening, growth after opening.
The classes will be from 10 AM to NOON on Aug. 2, 16 and 23 at the Lab Theater and will cost $25 each; they can be taken individually, although the sequence will be complete from the beginning to the end of a theater production. Each class will include a period of Q & A. No experience required.
