Alleyway Theatre offers a terrific playwriting course. The instructor, Bella Poynton, is adept at teaching key playwriting concepts through her feedback on student's individual work. By putting them into practice, students--or at least this student!--understood them much better than if they had been presented in a more abstract way. This was my first stab at learning how to write a play, and I learned a *lot.* Thanks for making this class available!
