Rapid Lemon Productions Presents VARIATIONS ON SACRIFICE

Rapid Lemon Productions will present Variations on Sacrifice this summer as part of their 2018 season. A full production of 11 ten-minute plays appearing for two weeks will be followed by a third weekend of staged readings of 8 more short plays. All were chosen from local authors' submissions to the 14th annual Variations Project.

Audiences of 2017's Variations on Magic voted to select this year's theme "Sacrifice". 68 local playwrights created and submitted 76 plays for consideration. 2018 is the first year to feature directed staged readings of a second group of plays, following the full production. The staged readings will be presented at a special reduced ticket price, and consist of plays whose authors are making their Variations Project debuts.
