The Imagination Machine's most popular assembly will literally bring your students' own stories to life! Nothing inspires your students to write like watching their own words spring onto the stage, fully-fleshed out in a complete production with professional actors, music, and costumes!

"Write Away!" focuses on moving beyond the basics of writing, and turning a first draft into a masterpiece! With the help of the audience, we create a brand new story unique to your school, then add the second step of writing : rewriting! Demonstrating the importance of adding details, finding the perfect story genre, and adding the finishing touches that give the authors their own distinct voice, this assembly proves that a single idea for a story can have many different versions. After you finish your first draft, you can still write away!
