Short And Sweet 2017
Event Date: 11/01/2017, 07:30 pm
The biggest little performance festival in the world!
Short+Sweet has spread the popular 10-minute format in theatre, dance, cabaret & comedy across Australia and the globe
– with festivals now as far afield as Hollywood, India, Malaysia, Dubai and NZ.
But the original theatre festival in its Sydney home is ‘sweet 16’ this year… and plans to celebrate in style!
New Festival director Wayne Tunks is actually a S+S ‘old hand’, having written, directed and acted in the fest since 2003.
The prolific playwright has some innovations planned for this year including 'Short+Sweet Queer' and a ‘Festival Director’s Choice’.
“I am looking for challenging plays, ones that stand out not just for a punch line but for a cohesive team, a strong script and bloody good performances.”
Each new week's program opens on successive Wednesdays and runs nightly through Sunday, always at 7.30pm.
Plus the separate 'Wildcards' program Sat and Sun at 4pm.
The heats for both programs run for 8 weeks, followed by finals in March.
