Over a twenty-four hour period, new plays were written, rehearsed & performed via the Zoom digital platform.
The Common Air Theatre Company welcomes to you the recording of the opening [and closing] night of the New Normal / New Writing Theatre Festival, a 24-hour festival of new writing under the new normal of virtual creation and performance.
The night before the performances, 8 playwrights, 8 directors & 16 actors were divided into small production teams determined by pulling their names of out a hat. A theme was randomly assigned to each group. From these small teams and theme, they were given the challenge to write, rehearse and fully stage a new theatre piece under our new normal. The result of these efforts were publicly performed on the 18th July, and we would like to invite you to see the fruits of these efforts.
A video of the performance can be seen here.
