503Studio Masterclass: Finding the End

The first part of your play is going smoothly, you’re deep in the characters and their conflicts and obstacles – but you just can’t figure out how it resolves. In this session, Brian Mullin will explore how to create a satisfying ending to your play, how the last scenes and moments affect us and what they mean for our characters. This is a good workshop for anyone who is currently in the middle of a script – or anyone who wants some deep thinking about how stories function.
