Using your brainstorming list and experience with the communication process, begin writing a 10-minute play. Use the time in the lab to:
1. Brainstorm and come up with a topic
2. Create characters & choose an appropriate setting
3. Begin writing dialogue
The best way to write is to jump in after you've had a moment to think about what you want to say about human life and communication. Your play should be highly dramatic (Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf). I suggest starting just before the climax of the play. A 10-minute play script is usually 5-10 pages in length.
This introductory creative writing course at the School of the Arts (Rochester, NY) will introduce students to such topics as acting, performance poetry, speech communication, oral interpretation, and writing for a public forum. Writing for Publication will provide students with an understanding of the publishing world, encourage frequent submissions to various publications & contests, and develop word processing and design skills.
