SPARC proudly announces the 21st annual competition for New Voices for the Theater, the nationally acclaimed statewide high school playwriting program that celebrates and cultivates young writing talent from across Virginia. One-act plays from around the state are submitted and only eight winners are chosen.

The New Voices for the Theater playwriting competition provides an exciting opportunity for Virginia students to work closely with professional theater artists during a two-week residency. Students come to Richmond June 21 – July 4 and work to bring their original one-act plays to life on the stage.

The young playwrights will get to work with this year’s New Voices Playwright-in-Residence along with other theater professionals and writers. During the residency program, students will participate in workshops and revise their winning scripts. The plays will be premiered as staged readings July 2 and 3 at our brand-new black box theatre at the SPARC Center in Richmond.
