Keen Teens is a unique educational theatre program which seeks to improve the quality of plays written for high school students by commissioning scripts from highly regarded professional writers. Playwrights write plays 30 minutes in length that involve a large cast and also reflect Keen Company's mission of producing plays that are generous in spirit and provoke identification. The plays are performed by high school students from across the tri-state area, as part of a free program which allows students an immersive experience in new play production. The plays are all designed and directed by theatre professionals, allowing the students a unique opportunity to work alongside some of the most talented emerging artists working in New York today. Samuel French, Inc. then publishes the plays, which have already garnered over 176 performances around the globe. For more information, please email keenteens@keencompany.org
