In need of a pair of eyes on your stage script as you prepare for or continue with rewrites? Desire assistance with structure, character arcs, dialogue or plot? The play doctor is IN! I’ve helped playwrights and musical theatre writers with their scripts of all lengths.
“Arianna provided terrific advice as dramaturg on my new full-length drama… She was thoughtful and professional… Her comments were astute, perceptive and creative, and she never held back from challenging me in a positive manner… Her analysis has been rich and in depth…Long after I received her report, I continue to reflect on her analysis and be enriched by it.”
- Elan Garonzik, playwright
“Arianna!!!! Thank you so much. Genius. This is exactly the type of feedback and actionable brainstorming I was hoping for. I truly appreciate your thorough and thoughtful work. My mind is already drumming up ways to “show, not tell” this story…I'm going to spend some super quality time with your write-up and notes.”
~ Karen Campion, Award-winning Playwright and Screenwriter
“…[Arianna] excels in the kind of focused dramaturgy that supports AND stimulates a writer’s process. She is completely adept at breaking down, honing-in, and explaining (with clarity) wherever there may be issues or problems in the story. Her skill at examining details is only exceeded by her innate ability to ask the right questions that stimulate a writer to find and understand their path to making rewrites/corrections that stay true to their own style and voice… She IS the real thing!”
~ Jack G Hyman, playwright, author, actor, musical theatre writer
