A Month of Sundays Musical Theatre writing courses
Musical Theatre writing courses
AMOS aims to address the need for the development of new writers in the UK Musical Theatre industry. The course title refers to the length of each course – literally a month of Sundays. Being a weekend course makes it easy for you to get involved with minimum disturbance to your work and social life.
New writing is the lifeblood of theatre, be it with plays or musicals. There are now a large number of opportunities for new playwrights to train, learn and make contacts in centres of nurturing all over the UK in places such as the Royal Court, Traverse and Bush theatres. These kinds of solutions don’t exist to the same extent for musical theatre writers in the UK, which is where AMOS can help you.
If you are passionate about learning your craft from industry professionals, perfecting your writing skills or rediscovering your inspiration then ‘A Month of Sundays’ is an unmissable experience to encounter.

Playwriting Course - Oxford
The emphasis of this course is in producing work and then sending it to theatre companies and entering competitions. Although there is no heavy emphasis on access to the Internet some reference will be made to Internet sites.
What are the difficulties that playwrights face? Typically they are more on the motivation and organisational side than the actual skill of playwriting.
This course will provide the motivation and through peer feedback and maximum participation from the students and tutor everyone will be able to develop their plays – and, hopefully, find a market.
It must be emphasised that this course is 100% practical. Students will be expected to regularly contribute work and to give feedback to others
Fee: £99 for 9 weeks
Venue: Oxford
Dates: 15 April - 17 June 2010
Details: http://www.chimera-studios.co.uk/playwriting-course/
The tutor is unpaid. Any surplus will be ploughed back to the class members.
