Story and Script Development
We know writing is a lonely craft, that’s why we host regular script development labs and table reads. Writers can test ideas, get feedback, and hear their words come alive with actors.
Let’s work together.
Watch this page for announcements of our next script development and table read session.
Develop | Collaborate | Showcase
At NN5 Creative Studios, we believe the best stories often start small.
A usually idea scribbled on paper, a scene acted out in rehearsal, or a bold line that sticks in your head.
Our Story & Script Lab is designed to help those ideas grow into something powerful for the stage, screen, or social media.
What We’re Looking For
We welcome short-form creative writing that can be developed into performance material:
Short Scripts & Skits
Dialogue-driven, character-focused moments (1–10 pages).
Monologues pieces that allow actors to showcase range and truth.
Comedy Sketches that are sharp, funny, satirical takes on modern life.
Spoken Word & Poetry. Performance-driven writing with rhythm and punch.
Micro-Dramas, 2–3 minute scripts designed for short films or social media.
How It Works
• Writers bring scripts to our workshops.
• Actors perform them live in table reads.
• Feedback is shared openly, helping shape the story.
• Selected pieces may be developed further into short films, social media content, or stage showcases.
