The Last Acorn & Other Winning Plays

by Young Playwrights
March 23 - May 19, 2023 Keating Theatre

Wise, heartfelt, and often comical, this anthology of award-winning short plays celebrates creativity and imagination! Top plays written by elementary school students from our community and around the world are brought to life by a cast of professional actors. From a dragon with a stubborn case of the hiccups to a boy who couldn't resist pulling hair to an acorn that’s afraid to leave the tree, we've shined a spotlight on the magic of children's creativity through this beloved annual production for more than 30 years. We invite you to join us in celebrating what stories young playwrights will imagine this school year in an all-new play filled with laughter, lessons, and learning for us all.
