Page to Stage is a guided program to help you turn a story from an idea to a complete work ready to be performed at a live reading. Each quarter we release the theme of which all of our events for those three months will be centered.
This period’s theme is Science Fiction! Sci-fi is a subgenre of speculative fiction that deals in futuristic concepts such as advanced technology and science, space, time travel, parallel universes, and more. Sci-fi can take on hopeful, dystopian, or absurdist leanings. Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein is often credited as the first work of science fiction.
Famous works of science fiction include: Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut, 1985 by George Orwell, Kindred by Octavia Butler, and Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton.
Over the next three months, we will work to get our pieces stage-ready. At this workshop, we will lead use prompts to jostle some science fiction story ideas out of your head and onto the page.
This event is free and open to all writers. No RSVP necessary.
