From BEVERLY HILLS, 90210 and GOSSIP GIRL to 13 REASONS WHY, ATYPICAL, and RIVERDALE, television shows set in the world of teenagers have evolved through the years but still tackle the myriad issues young people face in this period of awkwardness and angst.
On this special evening, our panel discusses the craft behind writing with the teenage voice in mind, how they develop characters and refresh tried-and-true plots, and how writers are reinventing and reimagining the genre.
Panelists:
Peter Barsocchini (HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 1, 2, and 3)
Robia Rashid (ATYPICAL, THE GOLDBERGS, BAD TEACHER)
Charles Rosin (SOUTH OF NOWHERE, BEVERLY HILLS, 90210)
Brian Yorkey (13 REASONS WHY)
Moderated by Dr. Rosanne Welch (TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL, BEVERLY HILLS, 90210)
Doors open at 7:00pm. Event starts at 7:30pm.
