Young Playwrights Festival
Walden Theatre announces the annual Young Playwrights Festival, featuring a range of plays directed by Julane Havens, Hallie Kirk, Stacey Mead, Sabrina Spalding, and Alec Volz.
Every February, the best works by students in Walden Theatre’s New Voices Playwriting class are presented in this long-running festival and performed by actors from Walden’s Conservatory acting program. The playwriting program was among the first of its kind in the country (established in 1982) and several writers featured in the festival have gone on to work for both stage and screen.
This year’s lineup includes plays by the following young writers:
Alexandra Chand
Maggie Eskridge
Juan-Carlos Hernandez
Chris Hammon
Ian Jackson
Alex Parobek
Katie Scott
Allison Spanyer
Serena Stoddard
INFORMATION:
All public performances take place at Walden Theatre’s recently-updated Nancy Niles Sexton Stage at 1123 Payne Street.
