What happens?
14 plays are written, directed, scored, designed and performed within a 48 hour period. 75 Artists are engaged in each weekend of the festival. They are challenged to simply create, and to trust their fellow artists to create.
The festival aims to develop satellite festivals across the world, encouraging a flow of artists between festivals, and the benefits that blossom from these connections.
