Playwrights, have a summer fling with us


Truant Arts' Fast and Loose Festival

Playwrights

From 11:30 a.m.-2 p.m on Sunday, Aug. 26, you will be grouped with a director 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, you will go forth and write a brand new, shiny 10-minute play (average 10 pages). At 10 p.m. Monday you will email the script in PDF format to TruantArts@gmail.com. We will send that script out to your actors and director at midnight either Monday or Tuesday, depending on the night your show is scheduled to be performed.


Your team will rehearse all day 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 attend the improvisation session on Sunday, Aug. 26, and to write a brand new 10-page play and send it to TruantArts@gmail.com by 10 p.m. Monday, Aug. 27. We would love for you to be involved in the rehearsal process as an observer and to attend the performance(s), but that is your choice once the script is submitted.

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