Screenplay
Born in May 8, 1973 in Richmond Hill, Ontario, he was raised in Vernon, British Columbia, along with his brother and sister. Their father was a school teacher who started a community theatre in Armstrong, British Columbia. At a "Q&A" after the play No Exit, Young told the audience that his father often brought him and his sister to watch him act and that this is where his love for theatre began. Becoming an actor was never a choice, but rather just something he knew he was going to do.
Young is a graduate of the Studio 58 theatre school at Langara College, Vancouver, British Columbia. In 1996 he co-founded Electric Company Theatre along with fellow Studio 58 alumni Kim Collier, David Hudgins, and Kevin Kerr. He is a multiple Jessie Richardson Theatre Award winner. His play Palace Grand was commissioned for production by Vancouver's PuSh International Performing Arts Festival in 2008.
