SaturPLAY is part of our Play Development Series, which brings student works to life on stage! Each year, we invite students to submit their plays and monologues to the Annual Playwriting Festival. Plays are considered by the Literary Committee—a collection of nearly 70 program alumni, artists, staff, teachers, and others—who read and write individualized responses to every play. They then recommend a number of outstanding plays to be considered for further consideration, including those that will be produced for public presentations. Those students are invited to continue to revise and develop their plays in partnership with theater professionals for production.
These SaturPLAY shows were selected from over 600 submissions from 30 different schools to be a part of this production! Student playwrights have the opportunity to be present in the rehearsal process, and work with local professional directors and actors to bring their writing from page to stage. We hope you can join us in celebrating these student voices!
