The festival started as "a week of plays written, directed and performed by youth graduates of the Citadel Theatre's Teen Festival of the Arts"—according to coverage of the festival's first season. It has since become independent from Citadel Theatre, producing the plays of young playwrights from the Edmonton area, and starring young actors and directors from the city.
