Today’s workshop/talk: Let’s play at playwrighting!

Today will be an interactive workshop in playwrighting as well as a talk about the
similarities in structure and process of playwrighting, screenwriting and fiction writing.
A recent Miami transplant from NYC, my production company is also looking to form
playwright/actor groups and workshops to help develop, produce and hear new work.
I will be supplying also links to playwright submission opportunities for anyone in the
group who is interested in that and zoom links to on going on line free venues to hear
new work, or to submit your own, and to talk about producing work in New York City and elsewhere.
