Young Playwrights

Third and fourth grade students who are selected to participate in Young Playwrights have the opportunity to learn the skills necessary to write a group play.  Our playwright, Mr. Allen Radway, and Mrs. Golden will help the children nurture their creativity and find their own ‘voices’.  By the end of this seminar, the children will learn how to write the essential parts of a play and will work together to create unique group plays.

This unique creative activity helps to promote academic skills, literacy, problem solving, self-esteem, cooperative learning and motivation.  Each student will have the opportunity to create unique characters, themes and plots for their group plays. At the end of the play writing seminar, actors from Philadelphia Young Playwrights will read each play during a special assembly that celebrates the students’ accomplishments.
