Submission: To be considered for the class, submit a one page cover letter discussing your experience with theater and writing (if any), why you would like to take the class, and what you hope to get out of the class along with a ten-page sample of your work (either a short play or an excerpt from a longer play).

Please note that the class is open to any and all writers interested in learning about playwriting; whether you’ve written in other forms, are new to playwriting, or you are already comfortable with the form, you are welcome!​
