Big congrats to our good friends at Downstage, who are taking over the 10-Minute Play Festival in 2011! Read all about it in the Calgary Herald.
Previously hosted by Ground Zero Theatre, the event just took place at the Martha Cohen on Saturday January 9th as part of the High Performance Rodeo. I'll admit that this year's festival was my first...and I had a lot of fun! Congrats to Verb's Col Cseke, who was on the Downstage team on Saturday, and performed in a particularly insightful examination of death and the consequences of our actions. And by insightful, I do mean hilarious. Col got killed by by something resembling a tomahawk. Also, Downstage's Artistic Director Simon Mallet appeared onstage with a sock on his head. Awesome.
Also, big kudos to the ladies that are the Ellipsis Tree Collective. They won the Douggie Award for their 10-minute play, which was also their first performance as a collective. It rocked and so do they, so check out their website.
