This spring YPT has produced eighteen plays, representing the work of over 100 young playwrights, in nine evening performances and fifty tour performances in the Washington DC area.  Over six thousand people have seen the work of our young playwrights. 

Through the
New Play Festival,
Express Tour, and
New Writers Now! more people than ever are discovering the power and potential of student voices. 

Congratulations to these young playwrights!
