CW3223 Playwriting 2
ASSESSMENT: 5 minute playscript + 10 minute revised version
POSSIBLE TUTOR(S): Nick Joseph
In this module, we’ll explore, intellectually and practically, stylistic approaches to playwriting that look
beyond naturalism towards non-naturalism and modernism. Seminal works by practitioners such as Beckett,
Brecht and Ionesco will be explored, leading to creation of your own short play and the development of this
material via informal, practical investigation of acting, directing, rehearsal and performance.
Assessment will be via (i) a short play-script, (ii) a revised and developed version of this play-script after
informal, practical workshopping (acting, directing, staging) and (iii) an accompanying rationale.
