West Hartford's Playhouse on the Park Seeks Participants for 24-hour Play Festival

Third annual event set for Aug. 2.

West Hartford's Playhouse on the Park seeks playwrights, actors, and directors to participate in a 24-hour Play Festival that will take place Aug. 2.

Those interested in participating are asked to register as early as possible because space is limited.

Click here for a registration form.

Preference is given to those with experience and those that register early.

Participants meet on Friday, Aug. 1 at 8 p.m. and get randomly assigned into casts, each with one director and one playwright. Playwrights came out at the theatre overnight to write one-act plays. All other leave for the night. Playwrights return that afternoon to help with costumes and props. The performance is at 8 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 2, just 24 hours after the first meeting.

Participants must be at least 16 years old.
