"We're excited to get reacquainted with these scripts combined in a new way," notes Ixion Artistic Director jeff croff. "Heath and his team have put together a love letter for short plays and writers that have made the shows possible. The name is in reference to a traditional behind the scenes interaction: stage manager, “Ten minutes to show!’” actors, “Thank you, ten!"
The scripts were each originally produced with others around a particular theme ranging from Greek mythology, mothers and fears to secrets and geek themes. Each season the short play theme is put out and has received scripts from three continents and hundreds of playwrights.
