Abstract

This project was the culmination of an endeavor to provide me with real, practical experience in writing a full-length play. The next step here after was to stage a reading of my work, and receive feedback, which I would later apply in order to revise my written work, and then stage a second and final reading of the changes, that I’d made to my work. This project not only asks me to write a full-length dramatic work, but to also focus on the process of writing, revision, paying attention to detail, and the process of developing/telling a story.
