Calling all ACTORS, WRITERS, DIRECTORS, and theatre lovers of all ages!!!

It’s back! The return of the 24hr Theatre Project. The amazing and exciting 24hr Theatre project is coming back to the DAC this November for the 3rd year in a row!

Are you a writer that loves creating under a quick deadline? Are you an Actor or Director that loves to play on stage but rarely has the time commitment for a whole rehearsal process and multiple weeks of shows?Then this is for you!

We are now accepting submissions if you want to be part of this truly unique theatre experience. We need 25+ actors, 7 Directors, 7 writers, and some Techies to make all the magic happen.

Friday evening November 17th at 7:30pm, the writers will get specific prompts to work into their short plays, and the scripts are due by 4am.  Writers can stay at the DAC or head home to write…or even be remote from across the country.

Saturday morning the 18th, directors show up at 7am, and actors at 8am.  They come ready to rehearse all day with the performance at 7:30pm that evening with a special encore matinee on Sunday the 19th at 2pm.

Bringing the blank page to the stage in just 24hrs from conception to production.

It’s a wonderful whirlwind of a day and so very rewarding. Sign up now by emailing Jason@durangoarts.org or click the button to register!
