Traverse Young Writers
Traverse Young Writers is aimed at 18-25 year olds who wish to
develop their playwriting skills. It offers the opportunity to be
part of a creative network, where aspiring playwrights can discuss,
debate and create great new work.
This season, the Traverse Young Writers will participate in a
series of intensive playwriting workshops with award winning
playwright, May Sumbwanyambe. May is an Associate lecturer at
Edinburgh Napier University and a Teaching Fellow at the University
of Edinburgh, currently working across stage, screen and radio.
These workshops shall be supported by further sessions with the
Traverse Artistic Team, developing understanding of the unique
processes of staging new work. The course will culminate in a
one-to-one dramaturgy session with a member of the Traverse Reading
panel.
