See a collection of one-act plays written by fifth graders at the WiseWrite Festival of One-Act Plays, now in its 20th year. The WiseWrite Festival is free and open to all.
The festival, presented by Springboard, is the culmination of many weeks of learning, brainstorming, writing, editing, practicing, reading, coaching and tweaking by students and their Springboard instructors and teachers. Using character development, plot analysis, theatricality and more, students increase literacy skills while bringing their stories to life as original plays.
The WiseWrite Festival will be held on the Mainstage at the Repertory Theater of St. Louis in Webster Groves.
April 4 at 10 a.m. Free and open to the public. More information: springboardstl.org
