Dear Theatregoer:
Thank you for joining us for the 37th season of Plays by Young Writers,
featuring professional productions of plays by writers ages 13 to 17. This
year’s writers explore the need for introspection, finding new paths, and
forging meaningful relationships. All themes that played out in real time
as we produced under the looming presence of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Our team exercised creativity in every aspect of this year’s hybrid version
of the Festival. Originally hoping to present the Festival live and in-
person, we adapted plans to accommodate changing health requirements.
I was continually amazed and am eternally grateful to our production
team and behind-the-scenes staff for their passion, flexibility, grace and
kindness, as plans shifted and changed over the past several months.

With the support of our gracious partners, actors performed in-person on
the stages of Lamb’s Players Theatre and the Apolliad Theatre at Mesa
College. Performances were filmed and edited to share with school
groups and public audiences. While no audience was present during the
filming, some of the playwrights were able to join us and engage in the
rehearsal and staging process. The energy and connection of actors
working face-to-face was refreshing and glorious after months of digital
communication.

The plays produced in the Festival were selected by a team of
professionals from 276 submissions to our California Young
Playwrights Contest. We thank the many professional theatre artists who
bring their time, talents, and compassion to the play selection process.
Our contest for young writers is open to any Californian under the age of
19, with a deadline of June 1, 2022.
                     Our heartfelt gratitude to Sheila and Jeffrey Lipinsky
                     Family Fund, Mandell Weiss Charitable Trust, and U.S.
                     Bank Foundation for major sponsorship of the
                     Festival. We thank all of the contributors to the Festival
                     for sharing our belief in the power of theatre to spark
                     creativity, promote dialogue, and deepen empathy.
We hope these productions will touch your heart, spark conversation,
and inspire you to turn your stories into plays.

Sincerely,
Cecelia Kouma
Executive Producer

Ana Cabrera (Playwright, Petunia, age 15) wasn’t inspired
to write anything until third grade. Since then, she has
written and revised three plays with the guidance of her
wonderful mentor, Aleta Barthell. Ana was previously a
Semi-Finalist in Playwrights Project’s 2020 California Young
Playwrights Contest. Currently a sophomore at San Dieguito
Academy, she likes reading Greek plays, is a member of
the Spanish Honors Society, and dances competitively
with Fusion Dance. She is grateful to Playwrights Project
for such an invaluable experience, including the script
revision process. Now, Ana is confident she can
communicate her ideas creatively and thoughtfully
wherever she might end up.

Declan Kallberg (Playwright, Boxed In, age 14) is ecstatic to
be working with Playwrights Project for the second year in a
row. His previous play Dub Thee Fear was produced in last
year’s Plays by Young Writers Festival. Declan participates in
the drama department at Western Center Academy in
Hemet, where he is a freshman, and performs in community
theatre in Temecula. Some of his favorite acting credits
include Phantom of the Opera (Auctioneer/Don Attilio), A
Christmas Carol (Fishmonger) and The Nutcracker Ballet (Fritz).
He would like to thank everyone at Playwrights Project and
his many other mentors for making Boxed In possible.

Jacqueline Vellandi (Playwright, Reverie, age 17) is a senior
at Orange County School of the Arts Acting Conservatory
planning to pursue acting and playwriting in college. She
played Lucky in the school’s recent production of Waiting for
Godot and got her start years ago as Tiny Tim in South Coast
Repertory’s A Christmas Carol. An avid writer across all
mediums, she recently released an album (Paper Dolls by
JackiLove), and won PlayWorks with her play The Night We
Danced at the California Thespian Festival as a freshman.
She is thrilled to be part of Playwrights Project and
see Reverie brought to life!

                wrote their script in a Playwrights Project residency at
                Hillsdale Middle School in Ms. Ellis’s class. He really
                appreciates Playwrights Project because of their
                encouragement and effort in helping Ahmed become a
                better student. He likes swimming, and loves playing
                video games with his friends and listening to music 24/7.

                is a freshman at Valhalla High School and is on the

                appreciates their kindness and willingness to help
                everyone. Yaseen and his co-playwright Ahmed wrote
                their script in a playwriting residency at Hillsdale Middle
                School. He likes playing video games and listening to
                music in his free time. Yaseen also loves going out with
                his friends to watch movies or play soccer together. He
                enjoys using his creativity to write scripts and make
                them the best they can be. Yaseen plans to join theater
                at his high school to further develop his love of
                playwriting and acting.
