SynopsisThe act of writing a new play occurs in solitude, with a personality all its own. The playwright makes a thousand choices no one else sees - choices that other playwrights and theatre artists can benefit from. Now, for the first time, Michael Wright makes this personal process public. Playwriting Master Class does what no other playwriting book has: it looks at the range of creative choices as a new play evolves. Michael Wright challenged seven playwrights to create original work in reaction to the same prompt and to interpret that prompt in any way they saw fit. Through sample drafts, explorations, journals, and follow-up interviews, Wright offers special insight into these playwrights' processes, methods, and thinking - allowing us virtually to look over their shoulders while they work. The playwrights span various generations, backgrounds, styles, and points of view, and include Elizabeth Wong, David Crespy, Elena Carrillo, Gary Garrison, Velina Hasu Houston, Guillermo Reyes, and Julie Jensen. Playwriting Master Class will be a valuable classroom tool and an excellent resource for playwrights at all levels. Directors, dramaturgs, and actors will find its insight into the writer's methods and mentality extremely useful., Through sample drafts, explorations, journals, and follow-up interviews with seven playwrights, Michael Wright offers special insight into these playwrights' processes, methods, and thinking., Nelson Handwriting is a widely used handwriting scheme in schools throughout the UK. It provides a clear, practical framework for implementing and developing a whole school handwriting policy. The books are sequenced for progression and contain three levels of differentiation designed for a wide range of abilities. Structured units introduce clear teaching points followed by plenty of opportunities for practice.
