Educational Playwriting

Educational playwriting is the craft of creating theatrical scripts with a focus on learning goals. It combines storytelling with intentional content designed to teach or reinforce specific skills, knowledge, or values. Writers consider the audience's age, developmental stage, and educational needs to produce engaging, informative plays. These scripts are used in schools or educational settings to inspire understanding, spark critical thinking, and foster social-emotional development, making learning an immersive and meaningful experience through the art of drama.
