For a few years now, I've been working with a wonderful organization called Young Playwrights, Inc. They provide opportunities for playwrights 18 and younger to work with professional actors, directors and dramaturgs, and take classes, attend shows and have readings of their own plays. When I was in High School, I participated in their Urban Retreat and it was a week fill of inspiration that I still return to.
This past Sunday, I had the privelege of directing Abigail Carney's THE GLOAMING. Abigail is a clearly talented writer, and will be one of the many Young Playwrights alums to have a long and successful career ahead of her.
