Summary

Have you always wanted to belong to a book club that celebrates playwrights and focuses on reading plays? Now’s your chance!

Join popular DGI instructor Andrea Lepcio for a five-week course, where you will read, discuss, and celebrate amazing writers who have received Dramatists Guild awards for their work. In this brand-new DGI class, we will be reading the work of DGF Legacy Playwrights Initiative Award winners Constance Congden, Philip Kan Gotanda, and Ed Bullins, DG Lifetime Achievement Award recipient Adrienne Kennedy, and DG Flora Roberts Award recipient William Yellow Robe, Jr.

Discover some of the plays and playwrights that The Dramatists Guild/Dramatists Guild Foundation consider worthy of being included in the 21st century theatrical canon.

Requirements for this Class

Students will need to have copies of various plays by the writers being celebrated. (A reading list will be sent to the students prior to the start of the semester.)

Expectations for this Class

Students should be prepared to read the assigned plays and to participate in class discussions.

After Completion of Class

Students will leave the class with a wider knowledge of playwrights and plays that may have previously been unknown to them.
