Fells Point Corner Theatre is seeking original 10-minute plays by Baltimore area playwrights for the critically acclaimed local play festival 10x10x10. The 10x10x10 play festival is a staple of local theatre in Baltimore, and one of the highest selling productions at Fells Point Corner Theatre each season.

Audience votes are collected and counted at the end of each performance. The play with the most votes at the end of the run wins the Audience Selection Award and a cash prize of $150.

This year's 10x10x10 festival opens on Friday, May 15, 2020 and runs through Sunday, June 7, 2020. Performances take place on the Godfrey Stage on the first floor. Performances are held on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings at 8:00pm and Sunday afternoons at 2:00pm.
