Dear Colleagues
I’m running a week long course for Granada Concierge from 21st - 28th September 2021 for budding political playwrights.
We’ll spend 5 days looking at different approaches to writing political theatre and sharing work with each other.
The city of Granada is the city of Federico García Lorca, arguably Spain’s finest and most tragic poet, playwright and theatre director. The village of Moclín, where the course takes place, has its own close links to Lorca. On 5th October each year, the village hosts one of the most important classical religious festivals in Spain, and this festival, en Honor del Santísimo Cristo del Paño, is referred to in Lorca’s play, Yerma.
We’ll take the work of Frederico Garcia Lorca as an inspiration and cover topics such as the principles of dramatic structure, the principles behind writing political theatre in both conventional and unconventional forms.
We'll take excursions to Lorca’s family home on the edge of Granada, and visit the site where he was executed by Nationalists at the beginning of the Spanish Civil War.
The course will culminate with informal readings of extracts from everyone’s plays.
The course includes:
- Full-board accommodation in private ensuite twin bedroom
- 5 days’ writing tuition (average 4 hours per day)
- A tapas tour in Granada city
- An opportunity to read through completed work at the end of the course
- Excursions
The cost is 1,550€ for the week (approximately £1385). Flights and transfers are not included.
