The World’s Only
  Interactive, International Theatre Festival
  
  
Take part in a unique theatrical event, ‘Gone in 60 Secs’, by writing a new play lasting no more than one minute!
  
  
Now in it’s third international year, Screaming Media Productions have once again teamed up with Harrogate Theatre, Leeds Met University and Brooklyn College New York to present ‘GI60’, the world’s only ‘International Interactive Theatre Festival’. In May and June of this year both Harrogate Theatre and Brooklyn College will host an evening of new theatre. Each venue will premiere fifty new plays, each lasting no more than sixty seconds in length. Actors at Brooklyn College and Harrogate Theatre will perform the plays, which will be recorded and then made available for viewing or download via the screaming media website for a period of up to one year.
  
 
  
‘GI60’ celebrates new writing by providing a creative platform to a diverse range of people of all ages from around the world. If you have an idea, why not write a play.
