ATI announces the continued expansion of its LAB Series with the second annual DIY PLAYWRITING WORKSHOP. Registrants will join accomplished playwright, educator, and new works expert Andrew Kramer as he provides writing prompts, guidance, and inspiration for participants to start writing their own script. Then they will have the rare and thrilling experience of hearing their words brought to life by professional actors as they read excerpts from the brand-new works. Both novice and experienced writers are encouraged to participate.

The workshop is free, registration will be capped at 15 and available on a first-come first-served basis. Workshop classes will consist of three 2-hour writing sessions on July 9 & 10 from 6:00-8:00pm and July 11 from 4:00-6:00pm. The short scenes or monologues that are created during those classes will then be read by a cast of professional actors in a free public performance on Saturday, July 12 at 2:00pm. All classes, as well as the public performance, will be held at the Carmel Clay Public Library, 425 E. Main Street in Carmel, Indiana. Registration is available at:
