Riverside presents

Sharp Short Theatre

This competition offers students a rare experience of working in a professional theatre.

Now in its fourth year of providing an opportunity for new writers, directors and performers to exercise their creative ability, Sharp Short Theatre has fast become one of the most exciting parts of the Riverside year. All entries perform in a heat and then the best entries are invited to perform in the final, where students can be awarded prizes in four types including writing, performing, directing and overall.

Entries must be written and directed by students (18 years old and under) and can be up to at most 10 minutes in time length. Entries must be handed in by a producer, for example a parent, teacher or responsible adult.

Sharp Short Theatre is a pioneer of youth arts focusing on encouraging the works of students in theatre. Its aim is to unearth and develop the young to be Australian theatre professionals.

So what are you waiting for? Get into the spirit and register (×¢²á) now.
