13th Annual Players Theatre Short Play Festival to Take Place in June
Enjoy 15 original short plays over four weekends.
This June, The Players Theatre Short Play and Music Festival is back for its 13th annual NYC extravaganza.
The tri-annual short play festival presented by Be Bold! Productions, will host 15 original short plays by 15 talented playwrights. Each weekend for four days, five short plays will appear onstage each night, and a "Best of the Week" production will be selected by audience vote.
The plays all celebrate the wonder and magic (plus the trials and tribulations) of living in NYC. This evening of entertainment delves into the humor and reality of it all.
"SPF NYC celebrates the unique culture that is New York City," says Artistic Director Brenda Bell. "Whether it's something you love or something you just put up with, there's no denying that New York City is one of a kind!".
The NYC festival runs from June 6 - 23, 2024, Thurs, Fri, & Sat 7pm, Sun 3pm in the 3rd floor Steve and Marie Sgouros Black Box located at 115 MacDougal Street in the West Village at the Players Theatre.
Tickets are $30 and can be purchased online at: www.ShortPlayNYC.com or at the box office. A complete listing of the plays is below.
The Short Play and Musical Festival (SPF) is presented three times a year and welcomes all to submit. The next theme is Boo! in October, with submissions opening in July. Follow SPF on Instagram @beboldproductions and on the Facebook page Be Bold Productions.
