DROP AND GIVE ME 10
What is Drop & Give Me 10?
The Anti-10 Minute play festival. Instead of writing a one-off 10 minute play, we ask writers to write the first 10 minutes of a new play from 5 prompts, using the amazing PGE casting pool of actors.
In 3 steps what is it?
1. Playwrights will be assigned PlayGround Experiment Actors and 5 writing prompts.
2. Playwrights have 10 days to write the first 10 minutes of a new play with those actors in mind.
3. Actors read this new work created for them as we celebrate the birth of this new work and raise some funds to continue PGE programing.
FYI- Plays that have started at Drop have been accepted into The PG Evolution development process. And some have had productions beyond the PGE.
5 Writing Prompts
1. Set 14 years ago (2007) or 14 years in the future (2035)
2. A reunion takes place
3. Something is planted (literally, metaphorically, or symbolically)
4. There is a renewal
5. A joke must be told
