One Night Stand - 1981 - West End History , Info & More

Apollo Theatre
29 Shaftesbury Avenue London

ONE NIGHT STAND is a unique opportunity to go backstage with Rachel Dratch, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Richard Kind, Cheyenne Jackson, and other top Broadway and Hollywood writers, actors, and directors who produce four original short musicals, all within 24 hours. Think A Chorus Line meets Project Runway - a window into the creative process with a compressed time frame: the spark, the camaraderie, the sheer panic and the ultimate thrill of expression.



Filmmakers Elisabeth Sperling and Trish Dalton accumulated sixty-five hours of footage over the twenty-four hour period. The final product, edited down to 74 minutes, gives you an up-close, personal glimpse of some of America's favorite actors as they step out of their comfort zones - from Cheyenne Jackson's "fear, sweat, adrenaline and Red Bull" to Rachel Dratch's mounting dread at the prospect of singing alongside Broadways' finest voices. Richard Kind sums it up, "It's like a rollercoaster. You want to throw up, but it's fun!" ONE NIGHT STAND is a record of an insane theatrical challenge and keeps you on The Edge of your seat and laughing.



ONE NIGHT STAND is organized by The 24 Hour Company as a fundraiser for The Exchange, which supports innovative American and British Theater artists.
