\u201cWe are so excited and proud to present to you this year’s Young Creators Unit. After an exceptional year of digging in and dynamic creation, these participants took on the challenge of finishing our time together in the current socially distant reality. We held together virtually as a group, and now want to welcome audiences at home to join our circle and witness some of the work in development.<\/em>“<\/p>\n\n\n\n

JESSE STONG<\/strong>
Young Creators Unit Leader<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Every year we produce two evenings of readings where creators from our Young Creators Unit (YCU) read excerpts of their work to an enthusiastic audience of peers and theatre community leaders. Because of the confinement put in place during the COVID-19 pandemic, we have been working with this year’s 18 YCU members to capture the readings on video. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At 8PM EST<\/strong> on May 29th<\/strong> et 30th<\/strong>, we will showcase their work on Youtube Live with introductions and commentary by YCU leader Jesse Stong<\/a>. Join us virtually on this page, or directly on YouTube. Watching the showcase on our YouTube channel also gives you access to a live chat where the artists and our staff will be present to answer your questions and have a good time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About the Young Creators Unit<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to generous funding from Canadian Heritage and the Zeller Family Foundation, and the dedicated mentorship of PWM dramaturg Jesse Stong, the Young Creators Unit has become a mainstay for young Canadian playwrights. Since its beginnings in 2015, YCU has supported more than a hundred young artists as they take risks, develop their voices and find their place in Canadian theatre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
