SCC Theatre & Film Presents: 2nd Annual Ten-Minute and Short Play Festival

Published on Mar 1, 2024

Somerset Community College Theatre & Film Department will be presenting nine ten-minute and short plays on March 28th & 29th at 7:30 p.m., and March 30th at 2:30 p.m. in the Stoner Little Auditorium on the Somerset Community College North Campus, 808 Monticello Street, Somerset, KY, 42501.

The nine short plays are (in order): Gary the Bold by Ron Burch, Human Nature by John Tierney, Goat Face by Rebecca Kane, Forever and a Day by Michele Hinton, Away with the Fairies by Craig Gustafson, A Blessing by Jennifer O’Grady, The Abbey by Garrett Bates, Sleeping with Cicadas by Melissa Milich, and Moonbow Bride by Fred Tacon. Hinton, Bates, and Tacon are all Kentucky-based writers.

The Ten-Minute and Short Play Festival is presented in part with the Arnow Conference for the Humanities. The Arnow Conference for the Humanities was established at Somerset Community College to pay tribute to the literary contributions of Harriette Simpson Arnow, who grew up in Pulaski County, and whose works, both fiction and nonfiction, focus on the rural Kentuckians she knew best.

The conference brings together writers, scholars, academics, and others interested in literature and the arts for academic presentations and brief writing workshops to discuss and honor both the literature of Arnow and the writers and artists whose own work she has inspired and informed.
