Tuesday 29th July
Drama - including Coming Of Age

6.15pm to 9.30pm
Tutor: Charles Harris

With Drama we discover an enormously varied genre that has remained popular in both commercial and artistic terms for decades, while offering the widest range to the writer, from Personal Drama to Road Movie, Political Drama to Passage Rite and Coming of Age.

Many of the greatest and most exciting movies have come from this genre, which often delivers the best opportunities to develop complex and fascinating characters and provide juicy roles for newcomers and top star actors alike.  

In addition, many writers of other kinds of movies or TV scripts find themselves struggling to understand a subplot that is in the Drama genre. 

If you are writing for Multiplex, Indie cinema or modern TV series or one-off, you need to know about the similarities and differences between the many subgenres and how the writer must satisfy very intense audience expectations with style and sensitivity. 

We will also help you tease out which genre or genres are at work in your own projects, and give advice and feedback on how to strengthen their effect and make them work to the advantage of the script.
