Twenty-Five Short Plays : Selected Works from the University of North Carolina Long Story Shorts Festival, 2011-2015 Paperback / softback

Edited by Dana Coen

Paperback / softback

Description

In the fall of 2011, The Long Story Shorts One Act Festival was launched featuring performances of short plays written by undergraduate students in the Writing for the Screen and Stage minor, an interdisciplinary, dramatic writing program housed in the Department of Communication at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Marking the first five years of the festival, this anthology showcases works written to be performed in ten minutes with a small production budget.

The festival gives students a unique opportunity to participate in a collaborative, developmental environment led by experienced faculty and professional actors and directors, and the plays included here rise to the occasion.

Whether they are humorous, poignant, surreal, or provocative, they demonstrate why the short play form has become so popular; why this event has become one the highlights of the university's cultural scene; and why the Writing for the Screen and Stage program has thrived.
