HFC Presents: Student Directed One Acts - 2013

Every spring for the past decade and a half, the HFC Theatre Department has held a One-Act Festival. Traditionally, One-Act Festivals are used to showcase short works, 10-70 minutes in length, that explore unusual themes, content or styles. Sometimes they are simply shorter works by new or established authors. Comedies, dramas, tragedies and experimental works, are used to hone the skills of directors, designers, technicians and actors. All Seats 7.00 For further information or to make reservations, please contact Gerry Dzuiblinski at 313.845.9817 or via email at gadzuiblinski@hfcc.edu.
