Class Notes:
In this class, we will read contemporary nonfiction in which the writer considers the self in intimate relationships. How do writers capture other people in their writing? What are the ethical considerations in this type of writing? And, perhaps most importantly, how do writers use portraits of others in their lives to draw conclusions about themselves and the world around them? Expect to read essays and memoir excerpts and to generate and revise new writing about the people in your life.

Class Notes:
In this course, we'll examine how memoir writing can translate onto the stage in the one-person show. We'll study what makes something funny through scholars, stories, sketches, stand-up comedy, and look at solo shows from artists like Kristina Wong, Eve Enseler, and John Lequizamo. Then we'll create a lab for students to work towards writing, workshopping, and getting to a draft of a one-person show on paper and on its feet.
