The Playwriting Podcast

The Playwriting Podcast, hosted by Ken Wolf, Artistic Director of Manhattan Repertory Theatre, will offer strategies and techniques for playwrights (and writers in general) "to get out of their heads" and write better, feel more motivated, get into that CREATIVITY ZONE, find more productive ways to complete a work, and to simply have more fun creating! Each episode we will explore what works and what doesn't work, so that you can jump start your playwriting and take your work to the next level.

How can you write better plays, connect to theatres in better ways, and get the motivation and continued determination to actually get your plays produced?

I have talked about this on this Podcast,) but now I am bringing it to life, where playwrights around the world, and can experience training on Playwriting, on connecting to theatres to get produced, and creating on-going motivation and continued determination to actually get the job done.  

After signing up for an inexpensive yearly subscription, to start off, each member of Playwright Success will participate in a one on one 30 minute Zoom call with me to talk about goals, your strengths and weaknesses as a playwright and creator and more.  We will look at what is in your way of your Success, on all three tiers and put together a plan to push past those roadblocks, and take you to the next level. And then, we will be checking in quarterly on Zoom, and all the time through email.

Next, I will be facilitating to begin 2 three hour Zoom Mini - Seminars, a month  (Bi-Monthly) about how to write plays, how to get your plays produced, and how you get motivated to get the job done, and those who are unable to attend these Zoom Mini-Seminars will have access to the video of these Mini-Seminars on the Playwright Success Member Site at How to Write Plays.com with program notes and more.

And as I get more members I will be adding more programs like a playwright's reading room, question and answer sessions and so much more!  All videoed so if you can't make it, you can watch at another time.

And as part of this, you will be receiving a weekly monday morning motivational email to motivate and inspire you to write better, connect more, and challenge yourself to be great!

Also, you will have free access to a special member only Facebook page entitled PLAYWRIGHT SUCCESS where you can ask questions, promote your plays and connect with the Playwright Success Members!

As part of PLAYWRIGHT SUCCESS, I will be offering my entire Playwright Video and Resource member Area on-going as part of this program.  11 playwriting including how to write a Fantastic Play in 28 Days, How to Write a Fanatasic 10 Minute play in 2 hours and 3 Ceativity video courses including my 14 video course The Creativity Course!
