30x60
October 4th and 5th, 2024
Is it really possible to perform 30 plays in 60 minutes? That is the challenge that the Opening Knight Players will face. The actors and actresses have written every single play you will see—and even though they are short in length, all plays feature a beginning, middle, and end. Under a ticking clock, audience members will have to see what will finish first, the 30 plays or the 60 minute countdown. Through your focus and enthusiasm, your goal is to help them achieve this feat.
Each play starts with the word “GO” and ends with the word “GIZMO.” When the word “Gizmo” is said, the audience chooses the next play, and the process repeats.
