2020 Dramathon
Event Date
Friday, December 11, 2020
Join us on Friday, December 11 at 7:30pm online to see some of DC's most acclaimed actors, directors, Theatre Lab students, and alums reading world premieres of short plays written just for that night. It's fast-paced, fun, and unlike any other event in town! CLICK HERE TO RSVP and RESERVE YOUR SPOT IN THE AUDIENCE!
Want to perform and help fundraise for a great cause? SIGN UP!
Actors (and anyone with an adventurous spirit) are encouraged to sign up to perform in staged readings of new 10-minute plays by award-winning local playwrights. They’ll rehearse and perform with area directors, professional actors, and artists in a one-of-a-kind experience, all the while raising money for a great cause. It's like a walk-a-thon, but instead of walking for miles, they're performing to support The Theatre Lab! The more money they raise, the more (and bigger) roles they'll get! Select your favorite actors below from the dropdown menu to make a donation and help them meet their fundraising goals, or sign up to join them on screen.
Experience world premiere play performances written just for this occasion, starring the likes of Felicia Curry (Ford's Theatre, Everyman Theater Company, Factory 449), Frank Britton (2018 Helen Hayes Outstanding Lead Actor in a Play award winner), Bernadette Flagler, The Theatre Lab's own Kim Schraf and Deb Gottesman, Jennifer Mendenhall (Mosaic Theatre Company, Round House Theatre), and Jason Kravits (as seen on The Practice, Law & Order, and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt) - in readings of brand new short plays by Sara Jean Accuardi, Caleen Sinnette Jennings, Randy Baker, Renee Calarco, Allyson Currin, Kathryn O'Sullivan, Elizabeth Pringle, and Laura Zam. 2020 Directors will be announced in November!
