The LIC One-Act Festival is a competition style one-act play festival held at The Secret Theatre: Plays are voted on by the audience, 8 of which progress into the Finals on November 13th @ 5pm, and the winner is ultimately chosen by a panel of judges and the audience. Prizes will be offered in the following categories:
Best Play ($100) Best Director ($100) Best Actor ($50) Best Actress ($50)
In addition to cash prizes, those plays in the final round will be offered a chance to be non-exclusively published in The Secret Theatre's Anthology of Short Plays. Plays advance to the final rounds through secret audience votes. Final voting will be done by a panel of judges. Winners will be announced and awarded on the last night of the festival during the closing night party hosted by The Secret Theatre.
