Announcing... the PPP Black Box Festival
With a generous grant from the Brampton Arts Council, Peel Panto Players is producing the Black Box Festival.
Black Box is a type of theatrical event primarily organised to offer an opportunity to anyone, whether already involved in theatre or not the chance to try something different; amongst other things it is designed to educate, add knowledge and improve experience.
So anyone who has written a short play that has perhaps sat for years at the rear of a filing cabinet gathering dust, or for those who have never acted, directed, stage managed etc. or maybe never been involved in anything theatre now is your chance.
Please read the attached letter carefully and if interested let PPP know.
You need to act quickly.
Regards from the extraordinarily friendly PPP president,
Mike Butterworth, peelpantoplayers@yahoo.ca
