The 10x10 Short Play Festival is a celebration of local talent both onstage and off and we are excited to be staging the eleventh annual event this year! This season's showcase will take place on June 7th and 8th, 2024.

2024 10x10 top ten plays

We are excited to announce our top 10 plays for the 10x10 2024 Festival!

Congratulations to our 10 playwrights whose works were selected. Thank you to our jurors for taking the time to read and review every single entry and to everyone who submitted a script. The quality of entries was exceptional across the board making the jobs of the jurors very difficult.
