Enter Stage Write—The 10-Minute Play

Explore and experiment with this short dramatic form. From Chekov to Mamet, the one-act play (short and longer)remains a challenging and powerful way to tell a story. Learn what creates drama (setting, desperate characters, internal/external conflict) then pack it all into an intense moment in time and space. Whether it’s 2 pages, 10 pages, or more, make it happen using dialogue, action, and characters to create a real-life play.
