2011 YOUNG PLAYWRIGHTS INC.
NATIONAL PLAYWRITING COMPETITION

DEADLINE: JANUARY 3, 2011

DO THE WRITE THING. Pick up a pencil and write a play. Young Playwrights Inc. will give you a place to be heard. Your play will be read and evaluated in writing by a theater professional; selected writers will come to New York for our Young Playwrights Conference to work with some of this country's most exciting theater artists. Who knows, your play might even be produced Off Broadway in the Young Playwrights Festival! So, do the write thing: write a play and make yourself heard. The power is in your hands.

Mail plays, postmarked on or before January 3, 2011, to:
Young Playwrights Inc. YPC
Post Office Box 5134
New York NY 10185
