AND
COOL
FALL BRIEFS
THE EXTENDED RUN OF
SUMMER SHORTIES…. SUMM -AR NOT
PLAY FESTIVAL !!!!
 Turtle Shell Productions is extending a successful run of “Summer Shorties – Summ-Ar Not” under a new name, Summer Shorts Fall Briefs , 20 EXCITING ORIGINAL SHORT PLAYS, written by innovative playwrights from across the country and internationally. The event has two separate nights of performances that cater to adults and children. Previews begin on September 25.
 Summer Shorts Fall Briefs mixes a pinch of QUIRKY (a couple bonds on the things they hate), a splash of SATIRE (on the news media and reality shows), a dollop of COMEDY (Blitzen has been downsized), a dash of HORROR (a teenager experiments with murder), and a dram of DRAMA (a desperate daughter challenges her suicidal dad?) into a late summer treat that will keep the fall warm and satisfy your appetite for entertaining, provocative theatre.
