Since 2008, Burning Coal Theatre Company’s KidsWrite! Festival has been a celebration of one-act plays written by 6th-12th graders residing in North Carolina. Students submit their plays, and with a team of professional theatre makers, Burning Coal produces selected scripts. Seven plays have been selected to be presented at this year’s festival, all directed by Durham resident, actor and playwright, Susan Gross.
Every spring, Burning Coal Theatre receives play submissions from local 6th-12th graders that are then professionally produced for the public. Burning Coal has assembled a team of skilled theatre artists to bring these young writers’ stories to life.
The KidsWrite Festival was created in 2004 to encourage young writers in central NC by producing their original one act plays. Finalists are chosen from numerous submissions. Those scripts are produced at the theatre and then published in a book available for purchase.
