Featured Student Graduate
Drew attended a PlayWrite Workshop in 2006 and continues to support PlayWrite events. He’s a rap singer, who often touches on important issues like Domestic Violence in his music. He’s in his second year at Portland Community College and having a great time. He says PlayWrite inspired him in his songs today. “When you’re younger you don’t think about why you feel the way you feel. You’re just angry, you don’t think about why. Having to stop and think about why is so powerful.”
You can listen to and purchase Drew’s music here.

“I came to understand the impact of [PlayWrite] on the growth and development of the students… The stretch of imagination, the accumulation and assembly of vocabulary, the bond between writer and actor, all represent a powerful lifetime experience… which will shape and guide their future education and life.”
-David Mesirow, retired school director, and PlayWrite Underwriter
