The Brick Playhouse announces a general call to all playwrights in the Greater Philadelphia area for short-short plays for our annual Night of 1000 Plays!

These short-short pieces must be under three minutes in playing time. We will select and produce about seventy, thirty-five each weekend of the Festival as we have for the past six years (producing over 400 short-short plays). We welcome a variety of styles and approaches, and encourage experimental pieces, especially those incorporating movement and dance. Pieces should be three minutes or less in length and have modest production requirements for production flexibility -- but don't be afraid to be innovative!

This year's Night of 1000 Plays will run in two parts during February (part I, five performances, and part II, also five performances). Scripts are needed for consideration as soon as possible, but will be accepted up to December 15. Please mail or deliver five copies of each short-short piece -- submit as many as you like -- to The Brick Playhouse, Attn: N1K, 2034 Sansom St., Philadelphia PA 19103. Do not send SASE; scripts will not be returned. E-mail submissions will not be accepted. No remuneration is offered, other than the fun of seeing your short-short play fully produced.
