Once again Barrington Stage presents ten 10-minute plays for
Pittsfield’s Upstreet Arts Festival.
Last year’s 10x10 was a wonderful exposure to ten new
mini-plays. Each performance filled the house. Please refer to the BSC website
on February 25 for information on
the format and actors. The formula remains the same. It is the actors who
change roles in each piece.
Directors for this winter’s crop of “playettes” are Julianne
Boyd, Barrington Stage’s Artistic Director and Matthew Penn, an Emmy-nominated
director whose talent is seen often in the Berkshires.
Most of the plays are comedies or dramedies, yet a few are
quite serious. Oftentimes, it doesn’t take more than ten minutes to shape a
meaningful piece of theatre. The showcase offers the opportunity to see the
work of ten playwrights, one after another, on the same stage.
