[Smorton8 at aol.com]

Announcing...A New Solo Writing Class for the New Year! 
 
WRITING ON YOUR FEET
A 3- week Intensive on Writing for Solo  Performance
Taught by award-winning playwright/performer Sarah Morton  

Are you interested in creating solo work, but afraid to try it,  because you 
think you’re
‘not a writer?’ Are you a writer or performer  looking for ways to jump 
start the 
creative process?   

This 3- session intensive workshop will introduce you to alternative ways  of 
creating solo work. We will move through a series of physical and  
improvisational exercises to spark ideas for stories and characters, and then  explore 
ways to ‘get it down’ on paper and shape your discoveries into dynamic,  
theatrical monologues.  All levels of experience are welcome. 
 
Workshop meets on 3 consecutive Monday evenings: 
January 19th,  January 26th, and February 2nd, from 6:30-9:30 pm
 
at Loganberry Books on Larchmere Blvd in Shaker Heights. 
 
*Please note: Students must be able to attend all 3 sessions.  Please  check 
your schedule
carefully before registering. 
 
Recession Special! : $ 95   if registered by December  20th.          
$ 100  after December 20th.  

Class is limited to 8  students. Please register early.
