In the past, I have compared the 10x10 NEW PLAY FESTIVAL to dining at a Tapas restaurant, and it is. The production offers theatre goers a variety of content in small sized servings, to explore, share, and shake off a bit of mid-winter blues in anticipation of the bountiful season ahead. You may see something appealing, something appalling, something familiar, something peculiar, something for everyone – a comedy tonight. BSC is promoting this 2026 production of the 10x10 NEW PLAY FESTIVAL as “funnier than ever” and the standing ovation providing opening day audience seems to have agreed.
