The SUPER SHORT SITE SPECIFIC FESTIVAL, modeled after The Dirty Blondes’ Play-in-a-Day model, will be Unattended Baggage’s attempt to bring together a group of daring and energetic playwrights, directors, and actors to conceive, write, rehearse and perform six short plays over the course of 24 hours (mostly). The final product was performed on March 25th, 2018 on the literal streets of Manhattan, led by Aunt Linda (played by Anna Rock) as a tour guide.
SSSSF offers a chance to collaborate with new artists, a chance to get back in the game, and to explore, strengthen your craft by making quick and spontaneous decisions, and work quickly under pressure to put together a final product in a super short amount of time.
Stay tuned for a Part II in the future...
