The One-Minute Play Festival (1MPF), Boston Public Works, and Boston Playwrights’ Theatre (BPT) present THE 4TH ANNUAL BOSTON ONE-MINUTE PLAY FESTIVAL.


The One-­Minute Play Festival (#1MPF) is an NYC-based theatre company, founded by producing artistic director Dominic D’Andrea, and is America’s largest and longest running short form theatre company.


#1MPF is a barometer project, which investigates the zeitgeist of different communities through dialogue and consensus building sessions and a performance of many moments. #1MPF works in partnership with theatres sharing playwright or community-specific missions across the country. #1MPF creates locally sourced playwright-focused community events, with the goal of promoting the spirit of radical inclusion by representing local cultures of playwrights of different age, gender, race, cultures, and points of career. The work attempts to reflect the theatrical landscape of local artistic communities by creating a dialogue between the collective conscious and the individual voice.


In each city, #1MPF works with partnering organizations to identify programs or initiatives in each community to support with the proceeds from the work. The goal is to find ways give directly back to the artists in each community. Supported programs have ranged from educational programming, youth poetry projects, teaching artists working in prisons, playwright residencies and memberships, and community arts workshops.
