THE PROJECT
NANTUCKET
YOUNG PLAYWRIGHTS
with Artist Jay Craven
June 17, 2017
Nantucket Young Playwrights works to cultivate
the dramatic voice of island teens, through
mentorships that support students’ development
of original characters and stories and the
production of their short plays as staged readings and performances. We work to maximize students’ experiential learning through the performing arts - and to foster enhanced confidence, creative collaboration, critical thinking, and imagination. Nantucket Young Playwrights represents a producing partnership between Kingdom County Productions, the Nantucket Atheneum, White Heron Theater's Student Company, the Nantucket Book Festival, and the Nantucket High School. Special thanks to John Buckey and Liz Reinemo (Nantucket High School), Leslie Malcolm (Nantucket Atheneum), Maddie Hjulstrom (Nantucket Book Festival), Lynne Bolton and Tiffany Gallo (White Heron Theater & Student Company), and Harvey Young (Young’s Bicycles).
