The One Act Play Festival

We are in full swing with rehearsals on our Fourth Annual One Act Play Festival!

The Festival is a joint class project between our Directing and the Production Supervision classes.  The Directing students choose 10-20 minute plays (from a pile of scripts that includes pieces written by students in the Scriptwriting class), and the Production Supervision class act as stage managers for the productions.  This fall, the students in the Technical Resources class are functioning as Lighting programmers for the productions as well.

This year, we have 6 directors, 11 stage managers, and a cast of 16 actors from all across the campus, who are already a week into preparations for the performances on December 1 & 2.  The performances will be presented in a Dessert Theatre format, with two stages and seating at tables in between.  Proceeds from the sales of the desserts will go to benefit Belhaven’s Alpha Psi Omega cast, Iota Upsilon.
