Sun­dance Insti­tute Returns with Free Play­writ­ing Labs

[cap­tion id=“attachment_3787” align=“aligncenter” width=“468” caption=“The Sun­dance Insti­tute will hold the free work­shops out­side in Nolan Park on Sat­ur­day.”][/​caption] Many of our vis­i­tors come out to the Island and remark about how beau­ti­ful and inspir­ing it is. This week­end, the Sun­dance Insti­tute invites vis­i­tors to take that inspi­ra­tion and get cre­ative. The Sun­dance Insti­tute will return to Gov­er­nors Island this Sat­ur­day with free play­writ­ing labs that are open to the pub­lic. Labs will be offered four times on Sat­ur­day, at 10 AM, Noon, 2 PM and 4 PM. At the work­shops, vis­i­tors can hear how play­wrights find their inspi­ra­tion and begin writ­ing. Vis­i­tors will then be able to do some writ­ing them­selves. The labs will be run by four alum­ni of Sun­dance’s The­atre Pro­gram. They are Janine Nabors, Dar­ci Picoult, Win­ter Miller and Cori Thomas. This will be the Sun­dance Insti­tute’s sec­ond time on Gov­er­nors Island this pub­lic access sea­son. For ten days this past June, actors, direc­tors and pro­duc­ers from the Insti­tute worked on the Island on nev­er before pro­duced scripts. The work­shops are free to the pub­lic and are lim­it­ed to 20 vis­i­tors per ses­sion.
