Write a Play
Challenge yourself by limiting your work to 10 pages! Write a 10 minute play and see your work come to life on stage after careful crafting by a director and talented actors! This is a great way to showcase your writing and connect with people who can produce your work.
Act in a Play
Performing in a 10 minute play is a great opportunity to dip your toe into the local scene with little commitment. Showcase your talent, and network with other creatives!

ShuffleFest is a fun chance to be creative and collaborate artistically in theatre.
Try playwrighting, take a chance putting your director hat on, or act on stage.
Our theme for this ShuffleFest is
‘The Games We Play’
Humans use games as a form of escape, joy and connection. It creates community, and tradition. In games there are usually winners and losers; they can bring a toxic side out of people. Whether consciously, or unconsciously; in life, we are playing games. Trying to be the one with the most power, trying not to be hurt, trying to hide, or trying to bring joy in a brutal world. As a writer, it is your chance to create something that captures a game. It can have a game that is showcased, it can show someone who treats something like a game, or it can just have winners and losers.
Once all the plays are chosen for our festival, we will shuffle all the scripts that were given and randomly give each director a different play that they will cast using their circle of actors, or the actors who submit to be apart of this festival. It is your chance to create something that captures a game.
