TWENTY-PHO HOUR PlayFest

1 DAY. 30 ARTISTS. 6 BRAND NEW PLAYS.

As if time doesn't already feel warped during the pandemic, we're gathering a group of artists and putting their sense of time to the ultimate test during Mu's TwentyPho Hour PlayFest. Thirty artists have only one day to write, rehearse, and present six 10-minute plays created for the virtual environment. Watch our Mu-tini Hour on Friday at 7:00pm CDT, where the playwrights get their randomized prompts, actors, and directors. After a day of furious writing and intense rehearsals, all the plays go live on Saturday at 7:00pm CDT.
