E10: The Process of a Playwright | Everyday Forum Podcast
Everyday Forum Podcast

1h 46m
As performers, Hosts Beck Lloyd and Khadijah Roberts-Abdullah recollect their memories of working with writers as a direct link to the Holy Grail. They describe it as standing on grandma's stool, watching all the ingredients used in the story. In this finale of Everyday Forum Podcast, we explore how an idea transforms into a production on a Stratford stage.
Led by Director of the Foerster Bernstein New Play Development Program Keith Barker, along with Andrea Scott (award-winning playwright actor, and producer whose most recent play is Controlled Damage) and Morris Panych (playwright and director of Frankenstein Revived), follow the playwright’s process from an initial idea through writing and editing, then bringing it to the stage. Understand how critical elements are added and changed as a story moves toward an audience in a process that is deeply personal to each playwright.
