If you like a fast-paced, fun evening, where your mind and heart get twisted and turned for 70 minutes of non-stop theater, you’ll enjoy the SF OMPF. The 3rd Annual SF OMPF features brand new 70 one-minute plays by 40 of the Bay Area's growing talent pool of exceptional contemporary writers, among them are some of the most important artistic voices in the nation.

Following sold-out performances in the past two seasons, this year’s festival will be the largest, most inclusive, and most ambitious collaboration between PF and OMPF to date. The Festival also serves as a benefit for both organizations.

Directors include: Jill MacLean, Ben Randle, Paul Cello, Desdemona Chiang, Amy Clare Tasker, Dawn Monique Williams, & Susannah Martin.

“When I started the OMPF almost seven years ago in New York, we did so out of a need to create a space for dialogue and artistic challenge. I had no idea our work would spread like a wild fire to communities across the country,” reflects Dominic D’Andrea, OMPF’s Founder and Artistic Director. “Working with Playwrights Foundation to bring our One Minute Play Festival to San Francisco for the third time feels like a home coming for us, and I’m thrilled to continue this thriving partnership with the artistic community.”

The One-­Minute Play Festival is an NYC-based theatre company, founded by producing artistic director Dominic D’Andrea. OMPF works in partnership with theatres and organizations in cities across the country who share missions devoted to new plays and/or a community-specific focus. In each city, OMPF creates a locally sourced playwright-focused community event, with the goal of promoting the spirit of radical inclusion by representing local playwrights of different age, gender, race, cultures, and points of career.

OMPF has partnered with theaters in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, New Brunswick, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Baltimore, Boston, Miami, Minneapolis, and New York. Current and past partnerships include: Primary Stages, Victory Gardens Theatre, Cornerstone Theatre Company, INTAR Theatre, Boston Playwrights Theatre, Actor’s Express, InterAct Theatre, Mixed Blood, Passage Theatre, and others.

Some notable contributors to OMPF have included: David Henry Hwang, Neil LaBute, Tina Howe, Donald Margulies, Nilaja Sun, Lydia Diamond, Phillip Kan Gotanda, Michael John Garces, Kristoffer Diaz, Rajiv Joseph, Sam Hunter, Jose Rivera, Lisa Loomer, Craig Lucas, Greg Kotis, Michael John Garces, along with over 500 famous and emerging writers.For more information, visit www.oneminuteplayfestival.com
