A truly magical event.
On Saturday, May 21st, Touchstone Theatre and hundreds of guests from the community–teachers, artists, parents, children, school administrators, program funders and, above all, the 2011 Young Playwrights–gathered in celebration of youthful imagination and the transformative power of the creative & performing arts. Thanks to all to attended the event and showed their support.
