THE MAY DAY PERFORMANCE CHALLENGE
- SUNDAY 5/1
- HARVARD SQUARE
As part of the launch for the 2011 Emerging America Festival, the Huntington Theatre Company is seeking performance groups to participate in the May Day Performance Challenge, a fun new event aimed at showcasing the creative skills of local Boston performers.
Given a short script and a quirky style, relating to the pieces presented as part of the Emerging America Festival, groups will be asked to develop a 5-10 minute piece to be performed on the Emerging America Stage at the May Fair in Cambridge on May 1st. The challenge? On the day of the performance we hand you a list of items to find in Harvard Square and 1 hour to use your creativity to incorporate them into your piece. The results will be presented to an adoring crowd and a panel of judges. The winners will take home a fabulous prize!
Both individuals and artists are invited to apply. Groups must be comprised of 2-6 people.
