Your characters must constantly be capable of surprising you, even when you think you know them well.

Playwrights Workshop of Brevard Mission
Our Mission: Helping new and established local playwrights improve their craft through feedback from members at play readings, and from audiences at community productions, while enriching the local community through premiering original one-act plays.
The Playwrights Workshop meet on 20 Feb, a week earlier than usual to avoid having a meeting during the production. A new script by Betty Prisendorf was read, 'Unexpected Consequences'. This script was approved for production and will likely be scheduled for our November production since our May production is already full.
The next meeting of Playwrights Workshop will be 3:00 pm, 20 Feb (Sat), at Cocoa Library. We will read a new play 'Unexpected Consequences' by Betty Prisendorf and discuss the upcoming February production (25-28 Feb).
The next meeting of Playwrights Workshop will be 3:00 pm, 30 Jan (Sat), at Cocoa Library. We will read a new play 'The Reds Are Running' by Nancy Andrews and discuss the upcoming February production.

The Playwrights Workshop met 5 December (Sat) in the Cocoa Library. We read two plays, both of which were accepted for production. We read a new play, 'They're Dancing Next Day', by Lindsey Ferrentino. We gave a second reading to, 'Dawn's Early Light' (formerly 'A Day In Conecticut In 1775'), by Al Lehman. Both plays will be scheduled for either our February or May production.
The November production of Playwrights Workshop was a success. We had 154 attend the four day production 5-8 Nov 09, which is about average for our Nov productions. Congratulations to our authors for their well received plays. The plays received the following average scores from the audience.
