Dear CBMT Friends,
Yesterday I had the pleasure of reading the submissions for the 10 minute plays. From a zen carpenter who awakens a melancholic woman, to a trial of a villager who made her cousin laugh to death, to a strange summer day behind the front desk of a hostel in our special little town - it's been a much needed escape into the unique world of the plays.
If you've been tinkering with an idea or two for our 10 Minute Play Festival, I'd love to invite you to bring your idea to life on paper. Because we have decided to push back the performances of these plays to later in the year in November, we are extending our deadline to September 1st.
The theme for the 10 Minute Play Festival this year is "Laughter is the Best Medicine". If that sparks your imagination, great. If not, even better.
Here are some helpful hints to get the ideas rolling:
Cheers,
Brooke

Here are some helpful hints to get the ideas rolling:
- Imagine you are in the audience - what do you want to see brought to life onstage?
- Is there a story or subject matter you've recently heard that sparked your interest? Perhaps there is a character you'd like to bring to life or an event in history you want to dramatize?
- In general, a 10 minute play asks a question. By developing your setting, characters, and conflict, you the playwright get to use the world of the play to answer that question.
Cheers,
Brooke
