David Henry Hwang Writer’s Institute
History
Named after the Tony Award-winning playwright, the David Henry Hwang Writer’s Institute is the most active Asian Pacific American playwright development program in the country. Offering a series of writing classes designed to foster new work for the stage, the Institute is a nationally recognized force in the creation of plays that embrace the voice of multi-ethnic America and especially the Asian Pacific American experience.
Writing Program
Note that our writing classes require samples to be submitted for admission, and we do not have the classes publicized on our CourseStorm site. We will send you a private link for registration once you’re admitted.
To apply for any of our writing classes, please email a 3-4 page writing sample along with a statement of intent to classes@eastwestplayers.org. Notification of acceptance into the class will occur up to one week before the first session. Check back in early December for class announcements.
