How to Write a Play! workshop
JOIN US
Not sure how to begin your play? Join us for a workshop led by experienced playwrights and teachers! Each participant will participate in three workshops:
-
Help I'm Stuck! - a workshop offering fun practical activities and games to assist with 'writers block'. We will also explore the concept of when 'creative accidents' can change the direction of a script and lead to memorable moments of theatre. Led by Kate Sellars, head of Performing Arts at Riverside School
-
Character development - a great play needs great characters. Prague Youth Theatre teacher and playwright Liam Hallahan will show kids how to create characters using improv as a starting point.
-
Dramatic tension - Make your play exciting! Teacher, playwright, composer and award-winning novelist Bára Dockalová will show how you can turn a boring scene into one that will have the audience on the edge of their seats.
When:
10th November (Sunday), 2:30 pm - 5:30 pm
Where: Riverside School, Hradčanská Office Centre, Prague 6
Fee: 400,- Kč / child

When writing a play, think about ...
-
Having a beginning, middle and end
-
Creating a conflict.
-
Developing your Characters - we want to know them!
-
Surprise the audience! Don't give them all the answers right away.
-
Be creative! Feel free to add songs, craziness.
-
Don't try to do too much. Keep a main storyline throughout the play .
