Overnight Sensations

Since 2006, the Playwright’s Lab at Hollins University has partnered with Mill Mountain Theatre to present a micro-brewed theatre festival. On Friday night six playwrights are randomly paired with six directors, who then randomly draw from a hat a variety of writing prompts and a pre-selected cast of local actors. Before 8 am the next morning, they have to write a 10-minute play. They meet via Zoom with their directors over a virtual continental breakfast on Saturday morning and make any last minute changes before the actors sign in to Zoom and the plays begin rehearsal. When 8 pm rolls around, and the audience are at their screens and the show begins!

Admission: free, open to the public.
