24-7 Play Festival

The 24-7 Play Festival

The festival returns for a second season! Seven brand-new short plays, all written, rehearsed, and performed in a 24-hour creative bonanza! On Friday night, seven playwrights are given a common prompt for plays (a starting line, a prop, a situation) and the gender/age compositions of their assigned cast. Their coffee cups will be filled and they will be given the directive that they can leave the writing chambers only when handing over a completed 10-minute play — or the arrival of 6:00 AM, whichever comes first.

On Saturday morning the other artists — 7 directors and 14+ actors — arrive to discover their new scripts, roles, and assignments. At noon, we begin the tech process. Performances will then take place at that night. A delightful celebration of the complete theatrical process.

For Scoundrels 18+

This show is free for The Scoundrel Society! More Information here.
