Write a Short Play - Mini Course

A colourful image featuring Robert, with the text 'Write a Short Play'

Join us for a brand new workshop series led by Robert Holtom, writer of 'Dumbledore is so Gay' - Write a Short Play!

We’ll work together in a supportive and collaborative environment, while we unpack what makes a great script. Over 4 sessions we will:

  • Explore character, plot, drama, world-building and theme

  • Examine dialogue and different ways of writing voices

  • Do practical and interactive exercises to build our skills

  • Explore how to represent diversity and intersectionality within the text

  • Write our very own individual short plays!

The course runs on Tuesdays evenings 7pm - 8.30pm from the 19th Sep - 17th Oct, with a break on the 10th October for writing your final piece.

The course costs just £60 for all 4 sessions (or if you just want to dip in for one session, you can book a day pass for £15).

Robert is a communications coach and prize-winning playwright. Their play, Dumbledore Is So Gay, is playing at the Southwark Playhouse from 16th August – 23rd September.
