EVENTS
A rare opportunity to hone your Comedy writing from a very experienced writer and show creator - Michael J. Weithorn.
This masterclass is best suited to experienced writers who are already comfortable working in screenwriting software and are looking to deepen their craft rather than learn fundamentals. Ideal participants are generous collaborators who are open to sharing work, offer thoughtful feedback, and engage actively with the material of others in a rigorous, supportive environment.
You do need to apply and be selected - as spots are limited (it's a very short form to fill out.)
WHEN: SATURDAY 21 MARCH 2026, 9:30am-1:00pm
WHERE: University of Auckland, Auckland City Campus
Complete and submit this form to apply.
Submissions close: 10 March, 5pm
Selected participants announced: 13 March
