Presenters:

• Executive Producer: Hannah McEachern, Community Coordinator for the Business of Creative Enterprises Program; Founding Artistic Director of QTCboston

Description:

The 24-Hour Play Festival offers writers, directors, and actors an opportunity to explore the 17 Sustainable Development Goals through the lens of theatre. They will write, direct, and produce a short play (5–10 min.) that forms a unique narrative around one of the goals within 24 hours. 

While the pieces will explore sustainability through the SDGs, the production team of the festival will also explore ways in which a 24-Hour Play Festival process can be sustainable, i.e. encouraging sustainable writing and production habits throughout the process.

Produced by QTC Boston's Artistic Director Hannah McEachern, audiences can expect fast-paced, thought-provoking pieces about sustainability in all its forms.
