Scenario Workshop

Scenario! Introduction to Playwriting and Stage

The Workshop

Presented by PDX Playwrights 
Workshop: Feb. 3-7, 2025 from 6-9 PM
Festival of Live Shows: Feb 8 & 9, 2025

In this seven-day workshop at CoHo Theatre from February 3 – 9, with evening classes Monday- Friday 6-9 PM, and a festival of staged readings on the weekend, we’ll examine the art of playwriting, and ask the question: How does one create a uniquely compelling storytelling experience for the stage? Together we’ll investigate how to build a world, give voice to distinct characters, incite a cause-and-effect story arch, and visually manifest a story with props, body movement and gesture, and minimal lighting and sound effects.
