Playwriting Playground – Summer Camp 2026
July 6 @ 9:00 am - July 10 @ 3:00 pm
$275 – $500
Looking for a unique theater and writing adventure for your 8 – 13 year old this summer? At PYP’s Playwriting Playground, campers will learn brainstorming, storytelling, writing, acting and improv skills in a safe and playful environment. Over 5 days, participants will work together to select themes for a devised play and shape their own monologues and scenes, culminating in a performance for family and friends that will then later be featured in the Cannonball Festival at Philly Fringe this September! No prior writing or acting experience is needed!
Camp tuition is offered on a sliding scale of $275 – $500 and we do have two scholarship slots available. Email Madeline@phillyyoungplaywrights.org to inquire about scholarship slot availability.
When: July 6th – 10th Where: Philadelphia Young Playwrights (in the Asian Arts Initiative building, 1219 Vine St)
Age: Rising 3rd graders to rising 7th graders (ages 8 – 13)
