Wharton Center to Accept Plays From High School Playwrights

Once again the Wharton Center and the MSU Department of Theatre collaborate for the Young Playwrights Festival, which is an event that gives high school students the opportunity to send in their one-act plays for review and maybe even see their work live on stage.

A group that will be a mix of people from the Institute for Arts & Creativity at Wharton Center and the Department of Theatre will get 12 semi-finalists. After that, the top six will have their plays performed by students in May of 2018, which is according to the Wharton Center. Additionally, the semi-finalists will receive $100 and the finalists will receive $200 for their accomplishments.

The Wharton Center is still accepting applications until Monday, Dec. 4, 2017. You can apply and get more details here.
