24 hours to showtime

There’s nothing like pushing the envelope—and the clock—to bring out the creativity. OK, so sometimes it’s a flop, but really, just try writing, producing, directing and performing a play, from start to finish, in a mere 24 hours. It’s an odd bit o’ fun, and you’ve got to bring a sense of humor, but if you’re still interested, Big Idea Theatre (the little theater that really can) is hosting its first-ever One Night Stand on December 11. The show starts at 8 p.m. on Saturday, December 11—and this is always a good way to find out who’s got some flexibility, and who just can’t roll with the punches. For more information (or to arrange an audition for the rather large group of participating actors needed), visit Big Idea’s website at www.bigideatheatre.com.
