OUT OF THE HAT
Welcome to The Workshop Theater’s 6th Annual “Out of the Hat” Festival!
45 ACTORS and 21 PLAYWRIGHTS
matched by the “luck” of the draw
CREATED 22 short PLAYS
loosely inspired by the concept of “luck”
And couldn’t we all use a little bit of that these days?
All 22 plays will be available on our YouTube Channel from Wednesday, Dec. 9th at 7:00pm until Sunday, Dec. 13th at 6:59pm. For a $10, you will receive a unique link enabling you to watch as many as you like, as many times as you like, within that 96 hour window!
