The Love Edition Writing Workshop

The Love Edition Writing Workshop, facilitated by Christina Ying, will prepare students for the 6th iteration of Bindlestiff Studio’s signature show, The Love Edition, and its submission process. Through weekly assignments, in-class writing exercises, group workshop, and development of a sustained 10-12 page script, students will examine scene structure, action, character development, and dialogue focused on the theme of love. With an in-depth analysis of produced stage works, students will come out of the course with a more polished script built on the process of risk-taking and exploration of one's voice and vision.

Workshop Requirements: Please submit a 100-word pitch of your idea for The Love Edition show. This class will be a four-week hyper-focused workshop of works/ideas already in development. If you have a non-produced one-act piece you would like to workshop, please include it into your submission. Laptops in class are highly recommended as we will be scene building within the workshop.
