Final Paper- 4 – 7 Pages Total.
Here are the guidelines.
1) Premise – what is the idea for your project? What is the genre? Where/ when is it set and who do you see in the cast of characters?
2) Production concept – apply the concepts of theatrical design to conceive of sets, lighting, costumes and sound. What type of theater should it be in? Or is it site specific?
3) Write a crucial scene – this should be a minimum of one page of dialog with your main character and should be at the heart of the plot (even if you haven’t figured out everything that’s going to happen in the play).
I encourage you to use you imagination, to have fun and to see where your creative impulse takes you. Do what pleases you. I will be uploading an essay on playwriting. Feel free to read it as supplementary inspiration.
I will also post this under assignments.
