Hello! I am a current Rhame Recipient. Please follow our posts.

Comics Versus Plays

August 1, 2018 wtprhameLeave a comment

When I first started writing play scripts, I struggled for a bit. It was a new format and style compared to the narrative style I had been using for ages. Eventually, I figured out how to manage the style and focus on the conversation. However, I am also a massive nerd. I know, shocker. So,Continue reading Comics Versus Plays →

Take a Break

August 1, 2018 wtprhameLeave a comment

I stopped writing for a month. Honestly? The break might have saved my passion for it. I have been writing scripts for about two years now. In the beginning, it was easy. I was excited about finding this new format. I was constantly writing scripts in my Writers’ Workshop class. There was even a pointContinue reading Take a Break →

Small Steps to A Big Change

May 29, 2018 wtprhameLeave a comment

Being fat isn’t fun. Especially if you are a performer. Now, this isn’t me shaming anyone for being fat. But things can get a little rough out there in the stage world. You see, I have a secret dream role. I would love, more than anything, to play Cinderella in any play or musical. ButContinue reading Small Steps to A Big Change →

Find a writers group

June 18, 2017 wtprhameLeave a comment

I’m sure you’ve heard this before, however, I’ll say it again; every writer should join a writer’s group! That doesn’t mean you have to write in a group setting, but you should find a way to receive feedback from experienced writers on your work; be it theater, television or features. For instance, I belong toContinue reading Find a writers group →

Accountability

June 18, 2017 wtprhameLeave a comment

Every Wednesday I meet with a friend and we write. First, we take twenty to thirty minutes to catch up with each other. Then we discuss what we hope to accomplish during our writing session. After that, all you can hear is the sound of our fingers stroking our keyboards. I recommend giving this aContinue reading Accountability →

Ethel Woolson Lab – “Post Lab”

June 18, 2017 wtprhameLeave a comment

After the lab, I celebrated the outpouring of love and then went back to re-writing the play. I tried to infuse many of the notes that I received from my team, some of which came in a follow-up conference call. I jumped into the revisions with enthusiasm but soon hit a wall. The story wasn’tContinue reading Ethel Woolson Lab – “Post Lab” →

Ethel Woolson Lab – “The Reading”

June 18, 2017 wtprhameLeave a comment

On the day of the reading, I was super nervous. Several thoughts ran through my mind. Will people show up? Will they like The Club? Will they connect with the culture? And, will fellow playwrights be encouraged to go home and write? As the lights dimmed, and the doors closed to the standing room onlyContinue reading Ethel Woolson Lab – “The Reading” →

Ethel Woolson Lab – “The Actors”

June 18, 2017 wtprhameLeave a comment

The Actors that participated in the reading for The Club were amazing. They were invested in the play just as much as I was, which made the experience even more enjoyable. They expressed their contentment with the subject matter and truly resonated with the time period. It was also an eye-opener for me because thisContinue reading Ethel Woolson Lab – “The Actors” →

Ethel Woolson Lab – “The Work”

June 18, 2017 wtprhameLeave a comment

As a recipient of the lab, I was assigned a producer (Amber Bradshaw), a dramaturg (Addae Moon), and director (Justin Anderson). Collectively, they provided notes to shape what I had on the page. In addition, they helped to keep my thoughts in line with what I was hoping to accomplish with the script. With guidance,Continue reading Ethel Woolson Lab – “The Work” →

Ethel Woolson Lab – “The Call”

June 18, 2017 wtprhameLeave a comment

On the evening of February 2nd, 2017, I received a call from Amber Bradshaw, Managing Director of Working Title Playwrights. It was here that I learned my play; The Club was selected for the Ethel Woolson Lab. I was elated to have been chosen for this competitive workshop. I also knew that I’d finally haveContinue reading Ethel Woolson Lab – “The Call” →
