Between January and March, Cast's Young Writers' Club, young people all aged 8-21, worked with professional playwrights in weekly online writing sessions to develop their writing skills and produce a short script with the aim of seeing it be directed and performed by South Yorkshire artists on one of Cast's stages.
Their work was streamed live in an online showcase on Thursday 18th March 2021.
