You should take a class with the Neos. The summer session for Intro to Writing & Performing the 2-Minute Play just opened for enrollment; this time it's led by Neo-Futurist ensemble members Ale Ramirez & KR Riiber.

MONDAYS, JUNE 26TH – AUGUST 21ST

6:30PM – 9:30PM

In this 8-week introductory class, students explore core Neo-Futurist tenets of honesty, brevity, and transformation in order to create short plays in our unique, non-illusory aesthetic. Using games and exercises, weekly writing assignments, and regular in-class workshops, students learn specific play formulas and styles that occur on our stage. In the second half of the class, the class works as an ensemble to follow the Neo-Futurists’ weekly creative process to pitch, rehearse and perform a menu of their own original two-minute plays. This culminating show is open to the public, and presented on our stage(!)
