An aspiring playwright from St Albans has won a scriptwriting competition and his play will be available for schools to perform later this year.
The Young People’s Puppet Theatre (YPPT) ran a competition during the first lockdown to find new scripts for their library.
Budding Beaumont School playwright Oliver MacKinnon entered his idea, along with a draft of scene one, and was chosen as a winner.
The prize was to work with a mentor from the YPPT to work the idea up into a full script.
