This first Annual Festival will showcase the same three short plays, two on May 5th and all three on 12th and 19th, offering theatre makers an opportunity to present shorter, exciting and, perhaps, more contentious or challenging work to the you. It also affords emerging directors, writers and actors a chance to spread their artistic wings.
We encourage you to come and support these artists and their work. Help us make the Studio a performance destination.
10660 City Parkway, Surrey (close to Gateway Skytrain Station)
