12th Annual Festival of Shorts at Wade James Theatre

12th Annual Festival of Shorts

Join Edmonds Driftwood Players for our 12th Annual Festival of Shorts. Each performance includes eight short plays that include multiple directors and casts. Come and be a part of our annual festival where the audience votes for a favorite at each performance from among the eight finalists. The theme for this year is Pay It Forward.

The finalists were chosen by volunteer reading groups who were given blind copies for rating. We typically receive submissions from around the globe! The shorts must not have been produced for an audience previously. Past winners have later been developed into full-length award-winning plays!

Congratulations to our 12th Annual Festival of Shorts Finalists!
