Keen Teens is a unique and free educational theatre program run by the Drama Desk and Obie Award-winning Keen Company. Keen Teens seeks to improve the quality of plays written for high school students by commissioning scripts from highly regarded playwrights and gives students the opportunity to work with professional artists in an Off-Broadway setting. This collection includes:

Foreign Bodies (5m 5f) Alphonse the bartender will always listen to your sob story as he pours you a drink. And everyone in his bar seems to have one. Mallory struggles with her all-consuming love for Trish. Everyone seems to be struggling with something. Until they aren't. All is not as it seems at this neighborhood watering hole.

The Rebellious Rhymes of J Nice (8f) The whole school gathers to cheer on the epic rap battle between the challenger J Nice and the champion Makeda. Both are MCs with mad skills rhyming for the Championship of the South Bronx. "There aren't really any rules but just don't take sh*t too far."

Citizens United (1f 16m or f) A comedy about the end of American democracy. Well not the end but a pretty drastic assault that came from within by five people who can't be voted out five men who will keep that job till they quit or die. Though granted one of them is already dead.
