Cone Man Running Productions brought their fun style of pop-up theatre to Houston for ONE NIGHT ONLY for a 24 hour play festival!

 

The playwrights picked their genres out of a hat and had to include the following parameters:



 

THEME: Invention 



 

LINE: "You're like the __________, I never had - __________, __________, and __________."



 

They were given from 7PM to 8AM to write when they handed off the scripts to the Directors who were told they had to incorporate a Prop:



 

PROP: a kite

 

 

With only 11 hours to rehearse, this is the theatrical havoc they created:
