American Theater Group (ATG) proudly presents new plays from its high school playwriting program. Join us as local actors read 8 short plays written by students from Thomas Jefferson Arts Academy in Elizabeth. The works will be directed by Alex Scoloveno. New Works/New Voices is ATG’s mentorship program where students work under the supervision of a professional playwright, writing short plays that are performed at the end of the program. On average, 8-15 student playwrights participate each year. This event is free with donations gratefully accepted.
