Turtle Shell Productions' 8-MINUTE MADNESS PLAYWRIGHT FESTIVAL OF 2009 is BACK for its sixth season, in our beautiful theater space in the heart of Times Square. We've received an overwhelming number of scripts from playwrights across the globe, and of these, 11 original works have been selected for the FESTIVAL, along with THE BEST OF - 9 of the best plays from the last 5 years. Each group will be presented as a separate performance.
