NT CONNECTIONS commissions new plays for and about young people from some of the best contemporary playwrights, for performance by schools and youth theatres from all over the UK and Ireland, both in their home venues and at sixteen regional partnership theatres. The NT Festival showcases an example of each play. For this year's Connections festiva, the National Theatre has commissioned ten new plays with an international flavour. These new plays will be performed at 20 theatres across the UK, by the rising theatrical stars of each region. Connections culminates at the National Theatre in June, with highlights from the regional festivals being performed on the NT's stages.
