PROGRAMS
Invited Guests
Each year the National Playwriting Program brings in invited guests to read and respond to our selected plays and to lead workshops specific to the playwriting discipline.
Team
Dedication. Expertise. Passion.
Our team prepares the National Playwriting Program Play Festival through out the year. Festival preparation consists of play selection, guest artist invitation, curating workshops.

NATIONAL FESTIVAL
Each April, the Kennedy Center welcomes about 125 outstanding theater students to the KCACTF National Festival. Student awardees in design, performance, directing, playwriting, stage management, dramaturgy, arts leadership, and theatre criticism, are invited from all eight Regions. Through master classes, presentations, conversations, and staged readings, students learn from and connect with established theatre artists, as well as their peers from across the country.
