14/48 The World's Quickest Theater Festival Starts 1/9

14/48- The World's Quickest Theater Festival
Winner of the Seattle Mayor Arts Award, 14/48 is 14 plays conceived, written, designed, scored, rehearsed and performed in 48 hours. The brutal combination of short deadlines, extreme talent, incredible speed, frayed nerves and an overflowing fountain of inspiration serve to strip away creative inhibitions occasionally found in more traditional theater, proving that, contrary to popular opinion -sometimes the first idea is the best.

January 9-10; 8:00pm & 10:30 pm
January 16-17; 8:00pm & 10:30 pm

About 14/48 Founded in 1997 by Michael Neff and Jodi-Paul Wooster, the festival has evolved from a one-night one-time only event to a twice-yearly, two-weekend-long theatrical bonanza that features Seattle's most fearless theatre artists with occasional guests from Los Angeles, Vancouver, BC and New York. Participation is by invitation only and ranges from experienced fringe theater artists to Seattle's performance elite. Each festival, 14/48's Steering Committee strives to comprise the artist pool of at least 30% new participants (a.k.a. "14/48 virgins").
