PLAYMAKING SERVICES

I have taught theater/playmaking to preschoolers, elementary children, middle-schoolers, high-schoolers, college students and adults! Whether in individual feedback sessions, collaborative theater making, or playwriting classes, I bring years of experience, insight, enthusiasm, empathy, flexibility and joy! Now, I can bring my expertise to you, wherever you are! Check out what I offer!

 

Want to Write a Play? (for KIDS, TEENS and ADULTS!)

Do you want to write a play and don’t know where to start? Or have you started a play, but you don’t know how to finish it? We can set up a personal zoom session to help get you started—at whatever point you’re at in the process! I offer a one time session, a series of sessions, or “as-needed” help developing your play.

And yes! I work with kids and teens! I provide a positive, empowering, joyful atmosphere for kids. Playwriting is confidence-building, can be therapeautic, is empowering, fosters empathy, builds creativity. Before working with a child, I will talk with the parent or caregiver to discuss any special needs and to set up meaningful goals you and your child wish to work toward.


Want to Write Your Own Monologue? (for KIDS, TEENS and ADULTS!)

Focusing on your strengths or needs as an actor, I will help you write your own monologue which you can perform! Comedic, dramatic, themed or otherwise, I can help you showcase the voice, style and character that highlights YOU.


Want Help with A Play You’ve Written? (for KIDS, TEENS and ADULTS)

Do you have a play you’d like feedback on? Send it my way and I’ll share a general analysis, highlighting strengths and sharing areas you could consider developing. I can provide feedback in writing or provide a one-on-one zoom session for discussion, tips, and feedback.

I will NOT edit or re-write your play. I will offer thoughtful feedback to empower YOU to make the changes you believe are right for your play. I will help you bring your unique voice to the forefront.


Want an In-Person Workshop or Party?

I offer in-person:

  • Theater Makers workshops (one-time or series) where students, ages 7+, learn fun theater skills and collaboratively create a short play to perform.

  • Playwriting workshops for kids, teens and adults.

  • Pre-School Dramatics: Imagination and story-based theatrical play and exploration!


Want a Q & A With a Professional Playwright?

I offer Q & A sessions with classrooms, small groups or even individuals. I can talk about my journey, give tips to young playwrights, and talk about my own play which you might be performing. **FREE for schools performing one of my plays.


Want Me to Write for You?

I offer various kinds of commissions, including monologues tailored just for you! Check here for more information.
