Our time, place, and dates are finalized! The place? Berkshire Community College in K111. That’s in the Koussevitzky Arts Center. Just come in the main doors and go straight through the lobby until you see the entrance to K111. This is a staged theater space with comfy seats equipped with writing tables.

Meetings times will be 7pm – 9pm on the third Sunday of every month: September 21, October 19, November 16, and December 21. That’s our schedule so far.

All skill levels are welcome, because the goal is to help members harness that great idea and bring it into the appropriate format. In that vein, our workshop is open for any kind of scriptwriting - Screenplays, Staged Plays, Radio Plays, and plays for Television. Bring your ideas or works in progress, whether they are 10 minutes long or full-length productions. We hope to see you there!
