Directors, get jiggy with us for a couple of days

Truant Arts' Fast and Loose Festival

Directors

From 11:30 a.m.-2 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 26, you will be grouped with a playwright and a few actors at Access Theater, 380 Broadway, 4th Floor (two blocks south of Canal Street). As a creative team, you will improvise on a theme. Out of this improvisation, your playwright will go forth and write a brand new, shiny 10-minute play (average 10 pages).

At midnight either Monday or Tuesday, depending on performance schedules, you and your actors will be emailed a PDF file of your play. Your team will rehearse all day, including a scheduled tech in the theatre, and perform in the evening. Audiences will vote on the top three plays each night. Those plays will move on to a Thursday night performance.

If you join this project, you will be required to attend the improvisation session on Sunday, Aug. 26, and to direct your cast on the day of performance. We would love for you to attend the performance(s), but that is up to you.

If you want to play, send an email to TruantArts@gmail.com, with "Director" in the subject line.
