You know the annual drill: A group of playwrights convenes at night, with eight hours for each of them to write a sketch. In the morning, these playlets are cast and the directors and actors have only a few hours to rehearse. That night, the piping-hot plays debut for a paying audience; confusion, missed cues and cracking up ensue. Participating actors this year include Abubakr Ali, Alex Moffat, Amy Hargreaves, Anthony Edwards, David Hull, Jin Ha, Joel Marsh Garland, Julia Chan, Julie Benko, Justin Bartha, Kathryn Gallagher, Leyna Bloom, Lilli Cooper, Louisa Jacobson, Maddie Corman, Mo Rocco, Okieriete Onaodowan, Rachel Hilson, River Gallo, Ryan Jamaal Swain, Sarah Steele, Talene Monahon, Tim Daly and Willa Fitzgerald. Proceeds benefit for the 24 Hour Plays' nonprofit educational and developmental activities throughout the year.
