Mendocino Theatre Company’s One-Minute Radio Theatre

Got a minute?

Mendocino Theatre Company’s One-Minute Radio Theatre celebrates brevity, with a new one-minute play every Tuesday and Thursday at 8 PM on KZYX, Mendocino County’s Public and Community radio station.

Appearing September 29th through October 22nd:

SOMETHING NEW by Philip Zwerling

IDENTITY by Raven Deerwater

I COULD NOT STOP FOR COVID by Holly Tannen

THE DOOMSDAY DERBY by Sharmon J. Hilfinger

LIGHT BEER by Nancy Bartke

And two plays by young playwrights:

THE WOMAN IN THE PASTEL KNITTED HAT by Phannarai Inkun (age 14)

ROOMMATES by Anthony Bartke (age 14)

We invite local writers of all ages and experience to collaborate by submitting an original one-minute radio play, in English or Spanish (or both). There’s NO fee for submission, there is no cash award if your play is chosen; all our actors and directors for this project are volunteers.

Please submit your one-minute play* (app. 150-170 words, for 1-3 actors) in the body of an email (no attachments, please) to mtc@mcn.org with the subject MTC One-Minute Play: [Title of your play]. Include your full name, contact information, and a brief, 50-word bio. You may submit as many one-minute plays as you wish, but only one submission per email, please.

*NB: Play may not contain the “seven dirty words”, which are prohibited by the FCC.  Play must be totally original and the author’s own work.
