What are we looking for?

3-4 groups of writers/directors who are ready for the writing experience of a lifetime (snacks included) and endless actors!

ALL are welcome to participate and EVERYONE gets a part regardless of acting or theater background*

WIRED in 3 steps:
Step 1: Writers are given a prompt and stay up all night Friday writing
Step 2: ADD ACTORS - casting begins at 10:00am in the Green Room (in Shakespeare Alley)
Step 3: Create a magical performance that will be performed Saturday at 8pm in the Bentley

When's the free food, you ask?
THE WHOLE DAY!!!!
You get BREAKFAST (at 10am in the Green Room), LUNCH, and SNACKS ALL DAY!*
Please let us know if you have dietary restrictions, the sooner the better!

THE GHOSTLIGHT PROJECT
Facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/events/1402488109786004/

On January 19th at 5:30 p.m., we will gather in the Bentley Theater *(location subject to change) to join in a collective, simultaneous action, together creating 'light' for challenging times ahead. We join the Ghostlight Project and theaters across the country to make, or renew, a pledge to stand for and protect the values of inclusion, participation, and compassion for everyone regardless of race, class, religion, country of origin, immigration status, (dis)ability, gender identity, or sexual orientation. Inspired by the tradition of leaving a "ghost light" on in a darkened theater -offering visibility and safety for all who might enter.

We invite you to join us for this very special event and confirm that theaters and arts communities have and will remain safe spaces for all. Though the national movement began with theatre artists, we're hoping to involve artists across the Dartmouth community in our demonstration. Art can be a powerful vehicle for social change: it functions as a source of hope, comfort, and inspiration in challenging times. Let's come together and commit to the production of meaningful and empowering art over these coming years.

Bring a flashlight if you have one!
