Playground is now in its exciting second year. In 2007, two short plays by two young Canberrans won a weeks’ dramaturgy on their work before seeing it produced by a team of theatre professionals. The Problem with Dreams by Jack Vening and Freak Vending Machine Accidents and Family Reunions by Bethany Edwards were premiered as a double bill at the Tuggeranong Arts Centre. The production was selected as one of the theatrical highlights of 2007 by the Canberra Times.
