August 10: Oaks From Acorns! with Anthony Clarvoe

August 17: Writing the Successful Ten Minute Play with Pat Milton
The ten-minute play form is increasingly popular -- and it's a great way to get your work produced and build up a playwright resume. But a ten-minute "scene" does not equal a ten-minute "play." So come learn successful approaches to writing this fun, in-demand form.
