One-Act Comedy Festival

Rockville Little Theatre's Second Comedy Festival will be held at the Gaithersburg Arts Barn on Friday and Saturday, September 7 and 8 at 8:00 p.m., with a 2:00 matinee on Sunday, September 9. (The festival is not included in the season subscription.) The lineup of seven original one-act plays ranging from the outrageous to the thought provoking includes:

  • The Book of Job, Part 2: Job Strikes Back by Matt Casarino.   God put Job through a lot. Can the legal system help Job set things straight?

  • Cat and Dick by Andrea Alton.  This one-act play explores life and love on the window ledge of a New York City office building

  • The Couldabeen Hamlet by Joe Feinstein.  Three actors jockey for top billing before the opening of "Hamlet."

  • Mortek Wins the Day by Phoebe Weiss.  They play violent science fiction video games that transition into reality, with a surprise ending.

  • The Rental by Harvey Levine.  Friends hire a “boyfriend for the day” for their female friend’s birthday.

  • Frida by Tom Neubauer.  Major uproar about a lost cat who is manipulative and not really lost.

  • Get Stuffed by Mark Scharf.  A rude talking stuffed bear is the alter ego for a young man trying to find his confidence and get on with his life.
