KCACTF Region VII
New Playwriting Program Resource Page
NPP is dedicated to supporting student playwrights in the development of their original work for the stage, with dramaturgical and performance opportunities that emphasize respect for the written word and for the playwright’s contribution to the theatrical process.
This resource page is here to better guide the student playwrights and their faculty mentors of KCACTF Region VII on how to submit for the regional/national festival and offer some excellent resources for playwrights at any level needing some guidance.
