Our voices are powerful, and monologues are an ideal platform for sharing our stories and perspectives with the world. We’re calling these workshops boot camps because we’ll take you through the monologue process from start to finish in one session! The workshop will begin monologue tips and structure, move on to idea generation and writing a first draft, include some peer sharing and revision, and culminate with an informal sharing of your work-in-progress with the class.

Participants of all experience levels are welcome - no prior experience necessary. There will be two separate workshops, one for participants 18 and up, and for participants in grades 7-12.

Both workshops will be held at Philadelphia Young Playwrights' Learning Lab on 1219 Vine Street, 2nd Floor.

Questions about this program can be directed to  215-665-2226 or programs@phillyyoungplaywrights.org.
