NACOGDOCHES, Texas -The Beta Phi cast of Alpha Psi Omega National Theatre Honor Society at Stephen F. Austin State University will host a playwriting workshop with SFA's playwright-in-residence, Jack Heifner.
The workshop is scheduled for 1 to 4 p.m. Sunday, April 10, in Room 303 of the Griffith Fine Arts Building on the SFA campus. Cost is $25 for community members and $10 for students attending any college or university.
Led by Broadway playwright Heifner, the workshop is an introductory course designed for those who have little or no playwriting experience.
"We had a wonderful turnout last year, including high school students, SFA faculty and students as well as members of the Nacogdoches community," Heifner said. "If you are interested in playwriting, this is an introductory workshop with exercises to help you get over your fear of facing the blank page or blank computer screen."
Organizers recommend not attending if you have taken Heifner's playwriting course in the past. Participants should bring writing utensils and paper.
Seating is limited to 30, and payment will be taken at the door in cash or check form. Proceeds benefit Alpha Psi Omega scholarships. Participants should RSVP to apobetaphi@gmail.com to reserve a seat.
