Experience the TOP TREATS OF SHORT+SWEET
Something for everyone every 10 minutes! Comedy, romance and betrayal. Sex,
murder and true love. And that's just for starters. Shorter+Sweeter is
on tour with the world's tastiest tiny theatrical treats.
Shorter+Sweeter showcases some of the very best works from recent
festivals, written by Australia's hottest writers, presented by our finest
directors, and starring a cast of brilliant actors. The selection features the
controversial, the rib-tickling, the absurd and the sexy in a unique 10-minute
play formula that is bound to please every taste.
Have a go yourself!
Short+Sweet is 'the biggest little play festival in the world'
with festivals in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Malaysia, Singapore and, as of
last year, Canberra!
For kids the Fast+Freshschool-based version will also kick-off in
2010.
Both Short+Sweet and Fast+Fresh are great opportunities to
get involved in playwriting and theatre-making, and there are great prizes on
offer. Click here for more info on how to take part.
