One Act Play Festival
Collin Norman performing 'Empty Chairs at Empty Tables'
The 2011 SLT One-Act Play Festival
The One-Act Festival will be held on August 5, 6, and 7 of 2011
The One-Act Festival is a competition to award the best actor/actress, best director, etc. However, it is a great platform for original work as there are not many opportunities for playwrights to showcase their talent. This event should appeal to those that want to perform but are afraid to audition, those that want to direct but have not had the opportunity to do so, and those that want to get involved but have not found the right show yet. This is really a great opportunity to be guaranteed a chance to participate.
