The 24 Hour Plays: Memphis is back for a third year! On June 29, 2024, LoneTree Live will bring together 6 writers, 6 directors and 24 actors from the local creative community to produce 6 short plays that are written and rehearsed in 24 hours. This ultimate creative challenge is set to be presented for one night only at TheatreWorks at the Evergreen. The first two editions of this unique event sold out, so get your tickets now!

​

The 24 Hour Plays: Memphis is committed to showcasing an outstanding group of artists that reflects the best of Memphis. The event is open to the public, and tickets are only $15, making it an affordable and accessible way for anyone to experience this one-time-only event. Attending the plays also is a great opportunity for theater lovers to support local artists and to see new and exciting work.

​

This production is based on a long-running format based out of New York City that has been produced around the world since 1995 and is called The 24 Hour Plays: https://24hourplays.com. LoneTree Live is glad to partner with them for a third year to license our own local affiliate production and to amplify the creative voices of our city in this unique format.

​

If you’re worried about watching 24 steady hours of theater, no need! It’s not 24 hours of plays, The 24 Hour Plays: Memphis is a performance of 6 short plays created in 24 hours. At 7:00 p.m. on Friday night, the writers, directors, and actors will meet and after that it's a sprint to the finish - the curtain goes up at 7:00 p.m. the next night!

​

Musician and composer Eileen Kuo will perform for the crowd before the show and between the plays. Come early and buy a Hampline Brewing Company beer, a wine or a soda at the bar and we'll have Malco Theatre popcorn and fresh cotton candy made just for you! The audience is invited to join the artists for an informal gathering after the show in the theater space.

​

Don’t miss your chance to see this incredible showcase of Memphis talent! This unique event was sold out its first two years and we are sure that word of this exclusive night of eclectic pieces will draw a big crowd again!
