Young playwright honored:

For the second straight year, a play written by Stevenson High School student Aidan Murphy has been chosen as one of the high school finalists for the 2014 LaBute New Theater Festival in St. Louis. The senior's one-act script for "Pisces" will receive a reading July 26 at the Gaslight Theatre in St. Louis. Last year, plays written by Murphy and 2013 graduate Amanda Ehrmann were chosen for the festival.
