Here Be Monsters is dedicated to inspire and facilitate performing artists in the creation of new theatrical work. Here Be Monsters challenges teams to create original short performances under extreme time constraints. These performances premiere on the stage in front of a live audience at Performance Works on Granville Island October 30 and 31, 2009.
The festival starts with a creative workshop on Wednesday October 28 led by Here Be Monsters Artistic Producer Jeff Gladstone. Workshop fee is included in application fee for all HBM2009 participants.
48 hours before performance time, groups will receive their inspiration packages. These packages could involve anything from lines of poetry, a lighting special, a piece of choreography… Now, this is where you come in. Each group is responsible for supplying one prop, cleverly disguised, that will be randomly selected by another group and integrated into their performance in whichever way they see fit.
Once you have received your inspiration package you have 48 hours to write, rehearse and perform your play. Let the games begin!
