What is 24 Hour Theatre?

Trumbull New Theatre is going to have it's most chaotic event ever!
TNT is presenting the 6th annual 24 Hour Theatre! What is 24 Hour Theatre? The 2010 experiment will be AUGUST 6 & 7.

Each actor is expected to come prepared with a memorized one-minute monologue.The predetermined directors and writing staff will then handpick their teams. After all teams are made; the directors and actors will go home for the night. The five playwright teams will each write a 10-15 minute play to be staged, rehearsed, and performed in front of an audience the next day. The performance is Saturday at 8:00pm - Just 24 hours later!The actors and directors spend Saturday getting acquainted with the script as it unfolds on Saturday night in front of a live audience (in a completed state or not!) It puts experts and newbies on the same playing field, providing nearly instant gratification for all. It's like the creative process on speed!

If you are interested in acting and able to commit all day Saturday, meet us at 7:30pm Friday, August 6 at Trumbull New Theatre in Niles. Anyone interested in watching the final projects are welcome to be a part of the audience Saturday, August 7 at 8:00pm.
