The annual KidsWrite! festival honors new student playwrights by mounting fully professional productions of the winning plays. In 2010, five student plays were produced, including three directed by McCormick: Lama's Blueberry Trinkets, Dubois's At Annie's House, and Bloom's In the Beginning.
KidsWrite! 2010 played at the historic Murphey School in downtown Raleigh, NC produced by Burning Coal Theatre Company.
