[Capdist-announce] Downtown Albany's Premiere Original Short Play Fest Opens Next Week!!

[Confetti Stage]

Confetti Fest -The Capital District’s Premiere Original Play Fest- Returns
October 7th!

(Albany, NY)-  Acclaimed for providing the downtown Albany community with
original theatre, Confetti Stage’s award-winning showcase of local talent
returns for its twelfth year this October. Confetti Fest 12 will present
five original short and one-act plays written by local playwrights and
honed through Confetti’s own mentorship process. These plays explore such
topics as mortality, immortality, parasitic worms, and bad first dates. As
colorful and diverse as the festive strips of paper that are its namesake,
each Confetti Fest is guaranteed to show audiences something they’ve never
seen before. Just look at the line-up!

Death of a Hamster- John, an unlikely modern Orpheus, finds himself, quite
literally, at death's door, making one last Hail-Mary to save a small dead
rodent. By Kate Carter, directed by Patricia Keister.

Survivor's Date- Cecilia and Phillip are world weary singles,
battle-scarred, and bitter as cheap gin. Is Alaska the only place they can
find common ground? By Val Kavanaugh, directed by Matthew Teichner.

The Girl With Wings- Why can't the people Cassie loves see her wings? What
happens when they finally do?

By Julie Demers, directed by Tony Pallone.

Symbiosis- Sometimes love is never having to say I'm sorry. Sometimes love
is never having to say I'm sorry there's a parasite crawling up the inside
of your leg. By Amy Sarah LaMena, directed by David Braucher.

Funny Voices- Larry was a voice-over actor. His personality had as many
facets as he had funny voices. Now, after his passing, his two children
attempt to piece those facets together, and form something approaching the
heroic cartoon captain for which he's best remembered. By Steve Henel,
directed by Mark Dalton.
