NEXT PROJECT 30:
SUNDAY, March 1 @ 8pm
VENUE:
Underground, 955 West End Avenue @ 107th
Street
Project 30
is an opportunity for theatre artists to take a chance
and collaborate on 30 minutes of raw theatre every
month. After a show is over, participants for the
upcoming
Project 30
put their name in a hat. First the writers
are chosen, then the directors, then the actors; all
having been grouped into 5 or 6 casts that will each
stage a 5 or 6 minute play in 3 weeks. The writers
have 1 week to complete their scripts that will all be
about a pre-chosen theme/topic.
Past
Project 30 themes include: taking a
huge-ass risk, succumbing to the power of fugly
and getting your heart stomped on.
Typically the writer will have to include other
pre-chosen, random elements like a whistled rendition of
“Oh What A Beautiful Morning” or a text message or a
dramatically timed burp. The directors and casts
have 2 weeks or more precisely (and stipulated), 9 hours
of rehearsal plus one dress rehearsal, before performing
at Sutra, a Lower East Side bar, where all the plays are
set.
Project 30 is a monthly opportunity to risk,
to go balls to the wall, in front of a crowd of sweaty,
drunken people.
Project 30
began in the winter of 2005 and over 200 actors,
directors and writers have participated in it since
then.
In March of 2006,
Kena Cuesta, an
original member of AUR, started Project 30 in Paris
and it was an immediate success, playing to sold-out
audiences. Click on the link below to find out more.
