Scholarship takes the stage with Villanova’s “Youth”—a play about a young church community wrestling with issues of identity, sexuality and faith. Award-winning playwright James Ijames, MFA, associate professor of Theatre, worked with dramaturg Adrena Williams ’19 MA to put on Villanova Theatre’s recent production of the show. In this episode, Professor Ijames and Adrena explain the collaborative research and scholarship that went into writing, editing and producing this new play.
