A creative pressure cooker… a project with energy! Many online events have created new works in a creative “pressure cooker” that brings an idea to fruition in a short period of time, and we think that’s a great way to give this project energy. Everyone involved has a shoestring time limit to do their part…write the scripts, cast the show, rehearse the show, produce it and bring it to the community! That’s where YOU come in!
