Short Attention Span Theatre

Short Attention Span Theatre

Yet another six (yes 6!) short lunchtime/teatime plays, with a mix of comedy and drama – all in just 90 minutes! Since its inception in 2015, Short Attention Span Theatre has been dedicated to supporting new voices in theatre. With the help of a stellar cast of professional actors, they have transformed raw talent into captivating performances. Over the years, SAST has presented the first theatre work by acclaimed authors Rachelle Atalla, Elissa Soave, and Kirkland Ciccone, as well as the celebrated short story writer Chris McQueer. We’re sure there will be something for everyone!

Doors open 30 minutes before performances for the serving of soup, rolls, and drinks (a bottle of beer, a small glass of wine, or a soft drink).

Please note the performance may contain strong language and adult themes.
