ABCDE Youthwright
YouthWright is a yearly playwriting competition sponsored by the ABCDE. Students of teachers who are in good standing with the ABCDE submit plays to be adjudicated by professional playwrights. Winning playwrights receive an invitation to perform at the BC NTS DramaFest in May.
Thank you to Evelyn Chew, this year’s adjudicator, who read almost 20 plays.
