Syracuse (On)Stage, Episode 41 - Ginny Parker Young Playwrights Festival

For more than 25 years, the Ginny Parker Young Playwrights Festival has given Central New York students the chance to see their ideas leap from the page to the stage. In this episode, longtime Christian Brothers Academy teacher Todd Benware, Syracuse University Department of Drama and YPF alumna Catie Kobland, and recent finalist and Jamesville-DeWitt student Udochukwu Okereke share stories about creativity, collaboration, and the excitement of bringing student voices to life through theater. Together, they explore how the festival inspires young writers to tell bold stories, see the world through new perspectives, and discover the power of their own voices.
