It s called The 24 Hour Plays: Viral Monologues where writers and actors work together to write, rehearse and record their projects in just 24 hours. With the COVID-19 Pandemic shutting down theaters across the country many of these writers and performers were wanting to try and figure out a way to still reach their audience with out physically having people present in the theater. Hence, The 24 hour plays!
Renegade Theater Company jumped on board with this concept for the kick off to their 2021 season using a host of their talented writers and actors. Beginning Monday January 11 at 6pm the actors shared a brief video with the writers to let them get to know them a little better. By 7pm the actors and writers meet and by 10 am the following day the actors will receive their monologue and must complete filming by Tuesday January 12 at 6pm. The finished monologues were then published every 15 minutes on YouTube, Facebook and Instagram
