Play in a Day

Play in a Day, formerly known as the 24-Hour Play Project created by Duquesne University's theater group The Red Masquers, returns to Genesius Theater, for, well, a day. The idea is ambitious but simple: Current and former Red Masquers have 24 hours (starting Friday night) to write, direct, stage, and perform original new plays. It's a trip for the creators but also oddly exciting for the audience thanks to the quirks and looseness you only get under unreasonable time constraints. Proceeds go to Keenan Lane Scholarship Fund.
