Event
Overnight Sensations 2021
A micro-brewed theatre festival presented by the Playwrights Lab at Hollins University, in partnership with Mill Mountain Theatre which again this summer, due to ongoing pandemic restrictions, will take place entirely on ZOOM.
On Friday night six playwrights are randomly paired with six directors, who then randomly draw from a hat a variety of writing prompts and a pre-selected cast of actors. Before 8 am the next morning, they have to write a 10-minute play. They meet via ZOOM with their directors over a virtual continental breakfast on Saturday morning and make any last minute changes before the actors sign in to ZOOM and the plays begin rehearsal. When 8 pm rolls around, and the audience are at their screens and the show begins!
PLAYWRIGHTS:
Nikki Adkins, Isabella Hutchinson, Mac Mitchell, ArLynn Parker, Ben R. Williams, Dwayne Yancey
DIRECTORS:
Stephen Baltz, Paul Gabbard, Erin Lane, Damien J. Matherson, Jared Lee Morgan, Breana C. Venablé
