6.10.26 Gregory Paul
Gregory Paul is an award-winning playwright and screenwriter and the brain child behind the Workbench New Play Workshop and Filmmaker Intensive in Park Rapids. Greg lives in New York City and spends time in Park Rapids in the summer and at Christmas.
The Workbench New Play Workshop is a playwriting workshop designed to guide writers though the process of writing an original 10 page play. It’s a quick intensive format of writing a play over the course of a week that ends with the play being read in reader's theater style.
The filmmaker intensive requires participants come with an already-written script. Participants will be led through the process by award winning LA filmmaker David Leidy and Gregory Paul, culminating in a public showing of the new films.
Greg spoke about the playwriting process, the role of a director, working with the Northern Light Opera Company, and the creativity, openness, and generosity of the community.
The Workbench New Play Workshop takes place from June 14 - 19 with the public performance on June 20th at 7 PM.
The Workbench Filmmaker Intensive takes place from August 11 - 14 with the public screening on August 15 at 7:30 PM.
Free to the public thanks to the support of The Northern Light Opera Company & Minnesota's Region 2 Arts Council.
