Geva 10-Minute Play Project

Please write a 10-minute play script to submit to Geva Theatre's annual Young Writers Showcase!

Scripts should be between 5-10 pages in length (in proper playwriting format!)

Please include a TITLE PAGE with clear contact information: Name, address, phone #, and email address.

MAKE SURE YOU PROOFREAD YOUR SCRIPT BEFORE SENDING IT OFF TO THE CONTEST!

These scripts should be sent to Mrs. Jean Ryon at youngwriters@gevatheatre.org.

Use the handout PLAYWRITING TIPS to get started on your play. Use the ideas therein to make your ideas grow and develop your idea. Avoid unnecessary stage directions and the use of narrators, as this is not acceptable for theatrical productions. Use the tips in the handout to break through writers block.

Check out Mr. Ludwig's blog for details about what we did in the lab today! Keep writing on your blog!

HOMEWORK: Complete your play script by next Friday, March 7.
