Over the course of the fellowship, we will be creating posts about different aspects of playwriting and theatre as a way to spur thoughts and discussions. Hopefully, these will inspire and provide additional insights for you and our fellows as they endeavor to create their new works.  We all know theatre is an incredible multifaceted art form that encompasses so many sub-art-forms of which we, as playwrights, are just another cog in the theatrical machinery. Though, one can certainly argue that without the playwright there would be no theatre; there would be no plays for directors and actors and designers to ply their craft. And I would also argue that the success of any staged production rests squarely on the strength of the script – no pressure.
