FRESHPLAY FESTIVAL is a collection of plays written by members of the Playwriting Lab and selected for a full workshop process and staged reading. The Youth Company playwrights work side by side with seasoned directors, designers, dramaturgs, and actors to bring their plays to life.
Playwriting Lab students spent the fall of 2025 writing original, ten-minute and one-act plays under the guidance of JUAN RAMIREZ, JR. These students have continued to develop their plays this winter for our FRESHPLAY FESTIVAL, which features an afternoon of staged readings of their work in collaboration with professional actors and directors.
FRESHPLAY FESTIVAL 2026 features the following plays:
SILVERHOOD PSYCHIATRIC by CARECIA ALLEN
BROKEN RECORDS by SIENNA ANNUNZIATA
TOY AIRPLANE by ALICIA GARCIA
MUSICAL CHAIRS by MADISON MILLS
MORNING COFFEE by TYRA TCHIBOZO
