Coordinated by Candice Clasby, this annual festival, which takes place in the Bronwyn Dodson Theatre on campus at 321 E. Chapman (at Lemon), features one-act plays. The event features original works by local playwrights, and provides an experimental forum for theatre students, professionals, and amateurs.

A panel of critics and theatre professionals judge each project and choose those that will go on to the Best of the Fest. Admission at the door is $15 (presale $12.50). Performances are at 8pm on Thursdays and Fridays from July 11 through July 19, with one Saturday night show on July 13.
