Teachers, help us spread the word to 6th-8th graders!
Oregon Children’s Theatre’s playwriting contest for middle school students, formerly known as The Bully Project, is back! 6th to 8th graders are invited to submit original, 10-minute plays. Six finalists will be chosen to work with local playwrights to revise and refine their writing. All six plays will then be featured in a staged reading at the Winningstad Theatre on April 25th, 2015.
One winning play will be submitted to the national Young Playwrights for Change competition, hosted by Theatre for Young Audiences USA and the American Alliance for Theatre and Education, for a chance to win a trip to Washington, D.C. and have your play read at the Kennedy Center! More information about the national contest can be found at www.assitej-usa.org.
