Short + Sweet Festival 2016
Bite-sized theatre.
Overview
If there was ever an event tailor-made for those with limited attention spans, it's Short + Sweet Festival. You know that feeling you get when you're 15 minutes into something that you're not all that into? Well, you won't find that here.
In the fest's 2016 Brisbane run over July 14 to 16 and 21 to 23, more than 30 new works will take to the stage across four strands of theatre and cabaret. Yes, that sounds like a lot, but there's a twist. Each and every different performance spans a maximum of 10 minutes.
Everything from improvised conversations and odes to puberty to physical explorations of attachment and film noir-themed burlesque features among the heaving program of bite-sized theatre delights, with south-east Queensland's best and brightest eager to showcase their condensed skills. Of course, they're not just offering up a sample of their talents for the fun of it; they're also hoping you'll vote to send them through to the Short + Sweet gala finals on August 26.
