Description
The only professional theater dedicated solely to playwrights aged 18 or younger, Young Playwrights Inc. was founded by Stephen Sondheim to foster the next generation of dramatists and develop dramatic literature by younger writers. For 25 years, YPI has served as an advocate for youth by providing a unique forum for uncensored self-expression, by insuring that the artistic voices of young people are heard and acknowledged, and by helping them to use theater to validate their views and concerns; YPI’s core philosophy is that every young person has something valuable to say and an inherent right to be heard.
