Princeton Atelier: How To Write a Monologue

Will Eno (Obie Award, Pulitzer Prize finalist) leads a workshop devoted to the study and creation of the dramatic monologue. Students will study various monologues to understand and reaffirm the very simple idea behind all of them: I'm trying to talk to you. Every other week we'll be joined by a specialist from outside the realm of theater and creative writing - a psychologist, philosopher, provocateur - to help us realize the challenges and possibilities of the form from their unique viewpoint. The aim is that these different perspectives inspire us in wild new directions while we grow in our understanding of ancient truths.
