Playwrights' Gym

Green Thumb Theatre’s Playwrights’ Gym is a paid 4-week writing intensive lead by former Green Thumb Artistic Director, Rachel Aberle. The Playwrights’ Gym provides time to study and develop skills specific to creating for Theatre for Young Audiences — with a particular focus on work that tours to schools. This unique program features cohort and one-on-one meetings, self-paced writing time, and guest speaker sessions.
