New York City

Twenty years ago, composer/lyricist Stephen Sondheim envisioned a non-profit theater to nurture the next generation of playwrights. And for 20 years, YPI has been doing just that: going into classrooms in New York City and beyond, bringing innovative and interactive methods of teaching playwriting to thousands of students with Write A Play!

We know that inspired teachers are the key to reaching students. We designed our Teacher Training Institute to teach you to use playwriting to help your students master basic educational goals such as reading, writing, and critical thinking, while discovering their unique powers of expression. A professional playwright will lead you through 12 hours of improvisation, writing, rewriting, and discussion of the elements of dramatic structure. You’ll discover how these exercises can be used throughout the curriculum — not just for the study of theater — and learn how to help your students appreciate one of our greatest art forms.

Tuition is only $225, and includes our acclaimed curriculum guide to use in your classroom. REGISTER NOW!! If you request registration material, remember to include your name and snail address — we can’t accept online registration (yet!).
