The New Play Festival is Young Playwrights' Theater's annual celebration of bold new voices. Each year Young Playwrights' Theater (YPT) honors plays from a diverse group of YPT students in a production that celebrates the playwright's craft. Professional actors, dramaturges and directors collaborate with student writers to create an evening of dynamic theater. Since 2012, YPT has also published a book of all plays Featured in, or selected as Finalists for, the New Play Festival. This year, we are proud to bring you 30 brand-new plays from DC-area playwrights ages 8-18! These plays are touching and funny, gripping and inventive, and demonstrate the creative power and potential of young people everywhere. YPT is proud to honor the bold, gritty and bright new voices of young writers. We hope you will join us in celebrating these talented, outstanding playwrights! Your purchase of this book includes a donation to support YPT, and allow us to continue to offer free playwriting programs in schools around DC. We are incredibly grateful for your contribution.
