2007 Ten-Minute One-Act Festival

Producer Lora Buckman

Artistic Director Joe Campanella

 

The popular tradition returns!  Thirteen ORIGINAL short plays -- all written by Playmakers! -- will perform twice each over a three-day period (May 18-20).

This is a chance to see actors in unusual roles, new playwrights showing off their talents, and directors tackling unique scripts.  It's like a grand experiment, with the style of entertainment shifting every ten minutes.  And with thirteen different styles, there's fun for all ages.  (Note to parents: A few scripts contain mild PG language.)

Tickets are at a special low price.  Only $5 for one night, or $7 for a special three-day pass!  Since each One-Act performs twice, if you attend TWO performances you're guaranteed to see them all!  And if you attend ALL THREE performances, you can enjoy your favorites a second time!

All performances will be at the Theatre at Sterling Middle School.
