Now in its 31st year, the University of British Columbia presents the Brave New Play Rites Festival premiering twenty six short plays at Studio 1398 on Granville Island. We have 10 Full Productions and 16 Staged Readings, written by UBC Creative Writing students, and performed and presented by talent from in and around the Vancouver theatre community. Twenty-six writers, fourteen directors, thirty-five actors, three producers, and a six-member technical team create stories of profundity, chaos and hilarity.
You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you might even scream a little… but mostly you’ll laugh.
Full productions: March 23-26th, 2017.
