Bring Your Own Theatre (BYOT) is a platform for anyone and everyone to come and create live theater with a supportive and collaborative group of talent, regardless of experience level. Our company found its roots in the living rooms of its members and has expanded to perform at venues throughout Chicago. Every month, five writers, five directors, and a group of actors gather to create and perform five brand new plays - all in 24 hours!
Location: Mrs. Murphy and Sons Irish Bistro
August 7th: We will be having our monthly pre-show meeting at 7:00pm CT via Google Meets. At this meeting, we will give an overview of the process, announce the groups, and announce the theme. Groups will break off to go over consent and comfortability and collaborate about preferences for the piece.
Writers will then have until 7:00 am, Saturday, August 8th to complete their short plays.
August 8th: All participants will meet at Mrs. Murphy and Son's Irish Bistro at 12pm. From there, groups will rehearse, memorize and tech their short plays.
Doors will be at 6:30 pm, and the show will begin at 7:00 pm.
