Currently, The Drama Foundry is working on the workshop sign up form. How to handle qualifications for the group is still open for discussion. One option is to make it open to anyone. Then, it can be decided if we are going to mix up the experience levels of the different participants or keep folks all at the same level.
By having a requirement for people to have already written a certain amount of material it will increase the chances of having participants who have already proven they have the wherewithal to write pieces that take a certain level of focus and discipline. This type of format would be more closed. A session would run for 5 to 8 weeks with a set number of participants and then start over again with new people after everyone had had their work read and reviewed.
However, creating a more open format where the group has a first-come, first-serve mentality would keep the group more community oriented and accessible. Meetings could just have a sign-up form where 3 to 4 people who show up could commit to having 10-15 pages of their work read and critiqued the following week.
There are other options. This will become more crystallized during and after the information meeting on July 11.
