Two simple playwriting exercises to help YOU start
Chekov penned a gentle satire (one act play) about marriage called Proposal
- What is Act II of Chekov's Proposal. Write the opening scene
- If your favourite playwright wrote Chekov's Proposal, how would he / she write it?

Two playwriting tips
- Translate a play from one language into another. Translating has helped me a lot
- Adapt a short story into a play. A short story because you have the characters and plot; and you don't have to fret too much about creating afresh. Look at Chekov or Gogol
