Young playwrights from high schools across northern Michigan had the chance to have their work juried by professionals from East Lansing. The six top plays will be performed at a free event this weekend in Traverse City.
This year, five of the six students are from the Interlochen Arts Academy. A student from the Grand Traverse Academy was also selected.
The Third Annual Young Playwrights Festival will be held on Sunday at the City Opera House. Curtain rises at 1:30.
This year's finalists were selected from over 30 entrants. Each finalist worked with a professional playwright mentor.
Congratulations to this year's winners!
