THE YOUNG PLAYWRIGHT

Apply for the Founding Cohort

Thank you for your interest in The Young Playwright. Because this is a small, live cohort, every student completes a short application before enrollment. This helps ensure the course is a good fit and allows me to get to know each student before we begin.

This application should take approximately 5–7 minutes to complete.

About the Student

Parent Insights

Every student is unique. Understanding your perspective helps me tailor the experience and ensure the course is the perfect fit.

Student Insights

The following questions are for the student. There are no right or wrong answers. I'm not looking for perfect writing or perfect grammar. I simply want to get to know you a little before we meet!

Commitments & Community

Before You Apply

The Young Playwright is a live, interactive course. Students should plan to attend the weekly live classes whenever possible, complete writing assignments between sessions, and participate respectfully in discussions and feedback.

Students who attend consistently will get the most from the experience.

Live Class Recordings

Because this is the Founding Cohort, live classes may be recorded and used in future versions of the curriculum. Student questions and voices may be included in recordings.

Separate written permission will be requested before any student video or identifiable likeness is used.

About Oil & Ink

Oil & Ink approaches storytelling from a Christian worldview. Students of any background are welcome.

At the conclusion of each live class, students may choose to remain for an optional discussion exploring faith, creativity, and storytelling together.

By submitting this application, I acknowledge that I have read, understand, and agree to the expectations described above.
