ABCDE YouthWright SCRIPTS

We are excited to be able to share the wonderful ABCDE YouthWright one-act plays that have been written by students in BC schools over the years.  As we gain access to more of the past plays, we will be adding them to this page.  Feel free to peruse the scripts, download them, and use them in your classrooms, but if you choose to perform one of the plays, please respect the playwright/s by paying for the rights and royalties as outlined on the document accompanying each script.

Summaries and cast breakdowns are available HERE   youthwright_plays_summaries.docx
