Calling writers, directors, and actors!
Confetti Stage needs your help for “Pencils Down, Lights Up: 48 Hours to
Curtain.”
Between Friday, March 28 and Sunday, March 30, we will write, stage, and
perform a series of one act plays. It will be 48 hours from the writers’
prompt to the final bow.
Producers split participants into groups of 1 writer, 1 director, and 1
small cast.
Writers will receive a prompt, which they will use to write a brand new
short one act script for a small group of actors.
Directors will lead the action, running rehearsal and blocking and staging
the script.
Actors rehearse and prepare for the final performance, book in hand or
otherwise.
Schedule: Friday, March 28
6 PM - Gathering at the Albany Masonic Temple to meet, be separated into
teams, go over the rules, tour the space, and socialize.
7 PM – The project begins! Writing prompts are announced. The writers get
to work.
