15 Minutes of Frame! A playwright competition at The Gene Frankel Theatre

Our 15-minute playwrights, actors, and directors will be presenting the very best of over 500 plays — and the winner will be decided by you, the audience. We have equaled the level of this opportunity by not charging our playwrights a fee of any sort to enter. Which has caused the talent to exceed excellence and originality. Be prepared to be wowed.

The winning short play will have the opportunity to develop their 15-minute short one act into a full production, to be presented and produced by Lucky’s Lighting Inc. in affiliation with Artistic Director, Gail Thacker and with the financial sponsorship of 24 Bond Arts Center at the beautiful Gene Frankel Theatre at 24 Bond St in NYC in 2027.

The winner will be announced following our final performance on Sunday evening, August 23rd, followed by a free celebration at 5pm. All are welcome.
