Student Voices: Plays & Monologues that Explore Black Experiences

Philadelphia Young Playwrights has always taken its mission of giving student’s voices center stage to speak their minds about anything and everything that they experience extremely seriously. And we would be remiss if we ignored the fact that some of our playwrights experience racism and challenge those experiences into their art. So here we have collected four plays and monologues from black playwrights about their experiences of race, racism, and how despite all that they endure black joy is possible. ​
