THIRD ANNUAL TEN MINUTE PLAY FESTIVAL
The Third Annual Ten-Minute Play Festival, produced by New York Collective for the Arts, took place over the weekend of July 21-23, 2006 with outstanding performances of world-premiere ten-minute plays by rising playwrights and established dramatists. This year's festival was presented in New York City at Urban Stages, 259 West 30th Street.

This outstanding collection of ten-minute plays was presented by a talented array of rising actors, directors, and technicians and included new plays by Broadway playwright Stephen Belber (Match, McReele, Tape) and Jonathan Karp (How to Save the World and Find Love in 90 Minutes), publisher of Warner Twelve. The show was an amazing success, playing to sell-out crowds, and both the audience and the performers enjoyed themselves immensely.

The plays comprising the program of the 2006 Third Annual NYCollective Ten-Minute Play Festival were:

Passive Belligerence by Stephen Belber
Denying Denny by Ed Brownson
Lights Up Strangers by Ian Grody

The mission of the NYCollective Ten-Minute Play Festival is to assist contemporary playwrights in developing their plays and careers and to provide theater professionals with the opportunity to engage in rich, challenging material. By producing shows that both challenge artist and audience, NYCOLLECTIVE THEATRE is rapidly becoming an important incubator and showcase for theatre artists.
