Moderated by Ann Filmer, a discussion will follow about art as inspiration for story, Will’s approach to writing, his work as a teacher of playwriting and what a potential student may expect in one of his playwriting workshops such as It Happened One Weekend. 

Cape Cod Morning will be read by Diane Dorsey and Jennie Moreau.
