DISCOUNTS FOR NUEA WEST
MEMBERS
20% OFF FALL PLAYWRIGHTING WORKSHOP WITH
TREY NICHOLS Saturdays 10am - 1pm September 6, 13, 20, 27,
October 4, 11, 18, 25 Trey Nichols is
offering 20% discount to his fall playwriting workshop for NUEA West members.
The workshop is geared for intermediate to advanced playwrights, though new
writers are welcome. In a fun, supportive, and rigorous atmosphere, each
playwright brings up to eight pages of new work to be read aloud and discussed
in depth each week. At the conclusion of the 8-week
session, readings are held in a casual setting with local
actors. The aim of the workshop is to
further the development of each playwright's unique voice and vision, with the
goal of completing a one-act play or the first act of a
full-length play by the end of the 8-week course. Many plays developed in the
workshop have gone on to receive readings, workshops, and productions at
theatres around the
country.
Trey Nichols is
a playwright, actor, and solo performer, and has written more than a dozen
full-length and one-act plays, including THE MEADOWS, FATHERS AT A GAME, ONE
SLIT HEAD, and BODY FOUND. His solo show, A LESSON IN PROPER BOW-FLUFFING
TECHNIQUE (Storey Productions/Moving Arts), was nominated for a 2005 Ovation
Award for Solo Performance. His most recent
play, SUNNI TRIANGLE, received a staged reading in The War Plays Project,
produced by playwright EM Lewis. Trey is a company member and the former
Literary Director of Moving Arts, the highly acclaimed theatre in Los Angeles
where from 1995 to 2007 he produced and moderated the company's Playreading
Series and aided in the development of many new plays by playwrights from all
across the United States. Trey received a
B.S. in Theatre from Northwestern. He is a member of the Dramatists Guild of
America and the Alliance of Los Angeles Playwrights.
The workshop is
limited to eight playwrights. The venue is a private residence on LA's
westside.
Fee is $250 ($200
for NUEA WEST members). For info about the next session or testimonials, e-mail
