All types of short play are considered but please remember to keep the staging simple with minimal set and props. We are ideally looking for plays that are 10 - 20 minutes in length. We will give special consideration to plays that are of the Halloween nature due to the time of year that this festival takes place during.

Each Play is responsible for providing their Director and Actors for their production. Break a leg!
