Congratulations Deep Creek Middle School! I am thrilled to announce that Do Not Pass Go, Do Not Collect $200, the play written by the Deep Creek Middle School Drama Club under my mentorship during my residency with them through Baltimore Center Stage in fall 2019, has been selected as one of the winners of this year’s Young Playwrights Festival. The play is one of six winning plays selected from a pool of over 180 applicants. Each winning play will receive a fully-realized, fully-designed production in the Pearlstone Theater at Baltimore Center Stage, performed by professional actors, on Friday, March 27, 2020, at 6pm. Please reserve your free ticket here. You can read their play by clicking on the image below.
In the nine, in-school sessions of the YPF Residency Program, Baltimore Center Stage’s professional teaching artists will lead 2nd-12th grade classes of up to 25 students through the playwriting process; producing short plays that can be submitted to the annual Young Playwrights Festival competition.
