Weekend Wonders

What is Weekend Wonders?

It’s a monthly online play festival presenting 4 new plays over the course of just one weekend!  Playwrights will have 24 hours to write a 10-15 minute play on a given theme for a specific cast.  Themes, creative teams, and other fun challenges will be announced on Thursday. By Friday the scripts are done and the directors and actors have 24 hours to memorize and rehearse, and all 4 shows will be streamed live on Saturday night!  From Zero to Zoom in 48 hours!

Upcoming Weekend Wonders:

Jan 28-30, 2021       Sponsored by Southern Wayne County Regional Chamber (SWCRC)

February 25-27, 2021       Sponsored by Karen Wilson-Smithbauer

March 25-27, 2021       Sponsored by Trenton Business Association

April 22-24, 2021 

 

Sponsors Needed

We are looking for a business sponsor for each month.  Sponsorships are $500, and cover small stipends for all the artists and provide lots of exposure for the sponsor.  Check out our SPONSORSHIP FORM to learn more.
