About this event

UnHinged Festival of Disturbing Theatre

Write or Flight

In October and November, six playwrights were sent to disturbing locations where they were left to write a play. They arrived at their destinations with no idea where they were going or what they were going to write, allowing the environment to influence their stories...and it did.

Write or Flight RESPONSE

We've been doing this since 2011, and have been amazed with the concepts and quality of writing that has emerged from this. Many plays have gone on to be performed at other festivals and venues. We have sent playwrights to haunted hotel rooms, a barn filled with not quite feral cats (the playwright did not mention she was allergic), mausoleums, empty stores, et al.

All six plays will be staged at UnHinged Festival of Disturbing Theatre.


* These three of the plays are longer one-act plays, running about 40 mins.

Three of the plays are shorter one acts , running about 15 mins.
