In this 8-week introductory class, students explore core Neo-Futurist tenets of honesty, brevity, and transformation in order to create short plays in our unique, non-illusory aesthetic. Taught by ensemble members Aussie B & Nakiyah T.m. Jordan, students learn specific play formulas and styles that occur on our stage before performing a menu of their own original two-minute plays.
