Publisher's Synopsis
The Blank Theatre's Young Playwrights Festival (YPF), founded in 1992, continues the mission of The Blank by supporting work by young people aged 9-19. Every year, a Selection Committee made up of entertainment professionals meet to select the 12 best plays out of hundreds of submissions from young people across the United States. The winning young playwrights receive mentorship from working writers and have their plays fully staged by professional actors and directors over a monthlong festival in Los Angeles each July. Actors who have performed in YPF include Chris Pine, Scott Lowell, Constance Zimmer, David Castañeda, Kat McNamara, Dominic Burgess, Dylan O'Brien, Sarah Michell Gellar, Kirsten Vangsness, Vico Ortiz, and more.
