The Creative writing - an introduction to writing for performance course offered by University of Cambridge is aimed at anyone drawn to writing for the performance.

Programme Structure
The program focuses on:
- the art of dramatic writing for performance.
- examine and interpret the dramatic stories, characters, situations, devices and dialogue used in a range of play texts.
- encourage and guide students' own experiments in playwriting through practical writing exercises and critical feedback.
