Solo Flights is an annual weeklong developmental festival of one-person shows presented in the beginning stages of their making.

In addition to the performances, Solo Flights features signature events including talkbacks, creative discussions & panels, and special receptions.

This year a selection panel, to be announced, will choose two works to receive the 2023 grants. The inaugural grant recipients were Avaaz by Michael Shayan and Sally: A Solo Play by Sandra Seaton.
