Three coloured text boxes read: “Fall Playwriting Circle” in three different fonts. A purple circle on the right with white text inside says: “New intake!” Colourful graphics of leaves and swirls decorate the black background.

Playwriting Circle: New Intake!

Calling all writers and emerging playwrights 🗣️

Register now for Realwheels’ Fall Playwriting Circle!

Do you have a script on the go? A character you want to flesh out? Are you a writer interested in playwriting? Join us for another round of our popular Playwriting Circle! 

Beginning in September, online sessions facilitated by Natasha Nadir will lead participants through the playwriting process with a focus on story, dramatic action, character and dialogue. Participants will regularly share their writing and receive ongoing feedback and support in preparation for a public reading (online) with professional actors.

* This program is offered free of cost to beginning and emerging playwrights (or writers who would like to transition into playwriting) who self-identify with disability.

The Playwriting Circle is held on Saturdays from 10:00am to 12:15pm Pacific Time.
Start date: September 16, 2023
Online via Zoom

While the Playwriting Circle is open to all Canadian residents, priority will be given to those living in B.C.
