2024 Young playwrights lab

Providing Unique Opportunities to Generate Authentic New Theatrical Work

Our 4th annual Young Playwrights Lab offers opportunities for youth of all abilities to practice playwriting in a nurturing, process-focused workshop. Young artists are mentored by top Kansas City professional playwrights. 


Each year, at least one piece will be chosen for further development and given full production as part of Spinning Tree Theatre's Young Playwrights Festival in January 31 - February 2, 2025.


Young Playwrights Lab is tuition-free, made possible by gifts from generous individual donors.
