2023 Young playwrights lab

Providing Unique Opportunities to Generate Authentic New Theatrical Work

Our 3rd annual lab offers opportunities for youth with disabilities and without disabilities to practice playwriting in a nurturing, process-focused workshop. Young artists are mentored by Kansas City's finest adult professional playwrights.

Each year, at least one piece will be chosen for further development and given full production later that season on the Spinning Tree mainstage.

Ellie, Vanessa, Cameron, Aubrey, and Holden develop ICARUS FLEW at the August 2021 Lab
