July 24

On the six month anniversary of war in 2022, short plays and monologues by 14 Ukrainian students, ages 15-18, were performed by professional actors on Zoom. The presentation was simply called “Young Playwrights Ukraine.” As a group they’ve always referred to it by the date though. At the time they didn’t plan to continue on writing together. They had no idea how far they would go.

The cast of the July 24th reading was as follows: Cara Buono, Misha Brooks, Kevin Corrigan, Ann Dowd, Oona Laurence, Brigette Lundy-Paine, David Morse, Petro Ninovskyi, Stefania LaVie Owen, Charlie Plummer, Evan Rubin, Ivanna Sakhno, and Lily Sheen.
