Calling all designers and makers!
Come join a team of students led by professional mentors to create a mini theatrical piece in 24 hours. Think: hack-a-thon meets theatre fest. We will team you up with your fellow students, give you some ideas and parameters along with design mentors to help guide you, and you will spend the day creating any type of theatre piece from scratch. The start of the event is Friday December 5th at 7pm in the Jim Wise Theatre, then work with your group all day Saturday December 6th (with free lunch for everyone!). On Saturday night, all the groups will present their pieces for each other! Click HERE to sign up or email theatre@njit.edu for more info.
