TODOS Productions (Theatre for All) and the Ruby Project (Accessible Theatre) present:
Playwriting into Action with Santiago Guzmán!

ABOUT "PLAYWRITING INTO ACTION"
In this 75 minute playwriting workshop, Santiago will introduce the mechanics of playwriting, talk about formatting, and lead participants on some fiery, quick, spicy exercises to let our writing juices flow. This workshop will take place over Zoom on Saturday, May 8th, 2021 from 1:00 - 2:15pm ADT.

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR
Santiago Guzmán is a playwright and dramaturge from Mexico City, now based in St. John’s, NL. He holds a BFA in Theatre from Memorial University, Grenfell Campus.
His work as a writer aims to put local, under-represented narratives and characters on the frontlines, whilst inviting audiences to appreciate the vibrancy of Newfoundland and Labrador from a diverse perspective.

His texts have been produced by Artistic Fraud of Newfoundland, Neighbourhood Dance Works, TODOS Productions, Resource Centre for the Arts Theatre Company (Upcoming) and Rising Tide Theatre (Upcoming). Some of his plays have been developed with the support of different organizations and festivals outside of the province, like Eastern Front Theatre, Playwrights Atlantic Resource Centre in Halifax, NS, and the Paprika Festival in Toronto, ON.
He is the Artistic Director of TODOS Productions, Artistic Associate at Playwrights Atlantic Resource Centre, and General Manager at Neighbourhood Dance Works.

As an immigrant, queer, and artist of colour, Santiago believes that representation matters.
