Read "The Salvation Shark" and more short fiction, scripts, and very little poetry at Laugh at Yourself First.

If you're here with me in Binghamton, I'd like to tell you about the Playwright Unit workshop. Started by Theatricks by Starlight in 2004, the Playwright Unit brought 19 new plays from Broome County writers from the page to the stage. We've hopped around in locations, but have held workshops twice a month since that time, giving new writers the opportunities to hear their stories aloud, and offered critique for revision. For a year now, the Playwright Unit has met at the Art Mission Theater. To show our appreciation, the Playwright Unit is changing its name to 'The Art Mission Playwright Group."
Meetings include exercises, group writing, and reading and discussion of submitted work. The Playwright Unit has always focused not on writing, but revising, and all submitted material is considered incomplete. Hearing a story read by accustomed actors allows writers to experience their work from a fresh angle, and discover cumbersome passages and awkward grammar as a new reader would. If you are a writer in the Southern Tier more interested in art than glamor, craft than cash, I believe you will enjoy our meetings. For more information, contact me at TbStarlight@gmail.com. Thanks for reading.
