2nd Free Monologue Writing Workshop

If you’ve been working on a monologue that’s allowed you to find a voice, you’re ready for the next phase! With the help of a dramaturg, actors and fellow participants, this workshop will help you further prepare your monologue for submission into the Community Voices event or for personal growth. This workshop will include tools and tips on characterization and structure with the majority of the time being devoted to offering critique. Bring 2 typed, double-spaced copies of a monologue you’re working on (one is for you; the other is for an actor). Actors will be on hand to read monologues, giving authors a chance to hear their work read and gain new insight into the writing process. RSVP today! Space is limited to 20 participants.

RSVP and info: email Matt at mlindsay@thehipp.org or call (352) 373-5968 ext 243.
