The Market Theatre Laboratory is excited to launch the latest edition to the part-time packages, partnering with Monde Mayephu, called The Write Stuff. This course delves into the art of writing and developing the solo act. Where the actor meets the writer in an attempt to develop solo scripts.
A one-person show usually follows a clear, three-act structure: beginning, middle, and end. This course will introduce the actor to understanding the central character and conflict, then learn how to build toward a climax where the character faces a major challenge or realization.
Finally, diving into how they resolve the conflict in a way that brings emotional closure to the story.?The course culminates in the performance of your own 10 – 15 minute solo production, as the author and the actor.
