Ladies and Gentlemen, Synapse Theatre Ensemble is proud to bring to you the first in what will become an annual event for our company! 

The Snapdragon Play-in-a-Day Competition! 

The tickets are only $10.00 to be purchased at the door! 
The show will be featured at the 
Access Theatre Blackbox at 8:00 PM!

Here's how the competition will work:

We have an eclectic and extraordinarily group of playwrights, directors, actors, and actresses. Theyve been divided into 4 groups. Each group consists of 1 Playwright, 1 Director, and 4-5 actors and actresses. At 8:00 PM the day before the competition, the 4 playwrights will be given a theme and a prop that must be incorporated into the play they will each be writing. The writers will then write a 10-20 minute play. When the play is complete they will pass it along to the director who will spend all day rehearsing with the actors / actresses as well as putting together the whole piece, including tech elements like lights, sound, and props. At 8:00 PM the audience will be seated and the 4 plays will be performed after only 24 hours from conception to curtain. After the shows have performed, YOU the audience will vote, via paper ballot, for the winners in these 5 individual categories:

Best Writer
Best Director
Best Actress
Best Actor 
Best Overall Production

And that's it! Refreshments will be served and this should be an electric night of theatre! For only $10.00 you cant go wrong! So come and support these amazing artists and witness an astounding feat of rapid collaboration! You will NOT want to miss this!

    CURSE OF THE STARVING CLASS 
    by Sam Shepard
    with the Brooklyn Acting Lab
    A darkly comic exploration of the American family psyche, this Obie Award-winning play is an expository look at the four members of the Tate family who live on a half-neglected farm in rural California. Having driven his family deep into debt, an alcoholic father strives for an impossible redemption in a home his wife has struggled to maintain for so long. Meanwhile, their two children teeter on the brink of adolescence and adulthood, revealing the role their parents’ dysfunction plays in their escalated loss of innocence. Trapped in a grotesque farce of the American dream, we see these four characters seduced by credit and developers, dreaming of escape while constantly facing the reality of hunger. The play examines the death of the American family as hardship clouds all interaction and any mutual understanding is lost.
