After spending a long summer in the editing booth, our wonderful film editor and YouTube master Christopher Thomasson will be uploading them in small batches. Keep watching, and if you don't find a particular play that you're looking for, check back in a few days. It will take some time to post all one hundred plays from US and UK, so enjoy them all, and please let us know your responses on the blog. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please share these plays with your friends around the world; remember that one of Steve Ansell's original goals for &lt;em&gt;Gi60 &lt;/em&gt;was to get as much theater to as many people as possible, no matter how remote the location. Watch these little plays on your phone, email them to friends, post them on your Facebook page.

Two cars crumpled like paper, spilling their guts of gears and engine parts onto the street.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I can never forget is the way time seemed to stretch and slow itself down to individual, isolated beats.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div&gt;If a moment can linger and expand, a minute is much longer than we think.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h5 class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 19px;"&gt;&lt;iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/E1I10FQ9fCg" frameborder="0" width="425" height="349"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;(Scene from &lt;em&gt;Hour of The Wolf by &lt;/em&gt;Ingmar Bergman&lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;The most common form of miniature drama is the TV commercial. Most leave a lot to be desired from an artistic standpoint.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 19px;"&gt;&lt;iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/FJ3oHpup-pk" frameborder="0" width="425" height="349"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some, in sixty seconds or less, can offer an experience that resonates across generations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 19px;"&gt;&lt;iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Zta34qFA60s" frameborder="0" width="425" height="349"&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Digital culture has sliced and diced our lives into even smaller fragments. Twitter has created a space where splinters of random thoughts, jokes, ideas, commerce fly at us from all over the world, often without context or the frames necessary to allow for real communication or understanding. It's like entering a town made entirely of billboards.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;There are even Twitter plays:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-rRsJJQLUc1Y/TkvRZu7EyqI/AAAAAAAAAmw/O3zrIHnfHNI/s1600/Twitter%2BPlay.png" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5641833198234421922" style="float: left; margin: 0 10px 10px 0; cursor: hand; width: 400px; height: 80px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-rRsJJQLUc1Y/TkvRZu7EyqI/AAAAAAAAAmw/O3zrIHnfHNI/s400/Twitter%2BPlay.png" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;h5 class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;(by Laura Barbiea, from the Twitter feed of another short-form theatre innovator, &lt;a href="http://www.nyneofuturists.org/"&gt;The NY Neo-Futurists&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;A minute, then, is practically an eternity.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Visit the &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/gi60channel"&gt;Gi60 YouTube Channel&lt;/a&gt; and you’ll find discreet minutes, each filled with a different confection: comedy, drama, horror, absurdity, observation, melodrama, minimalism, maximalism, lightly drawn sketches, strange scribbles, bold-brushed epics, love stories, ghost stories, innuendo. Some are flavors you've never thought of and would be hard-pressed to classify.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;Taken as a whole, the collection can be seen as a meditation on Theatre itself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;My earliest memory had a part to play in writing what would become &lt;em&gt;Moment Before Impact&lt;/em&gt;, which takes place in the split-second before a middle-aged husband and wife lose their lives in a car accident.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;A single second expands, and the two partake in a cold, clinical accounting of their lives.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;According to Pascal’s Wager, by believing in God, we have nothing to lose and everything to gain. If there’s no God, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;worshiping&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt; something that doesn’t exist has no cost.

There’s an energy, a chaotic enthusiasm, that sweeps through every member of the cast and crew as we work to put this thing together.&lt;br /&gt;It starts right around the end of April, as the submission deadline approaches, and I just can’t help imagining what kinds of plays were written. Reading them is simply a thrilling experience and I am always left astounded not only by the pieces but by the subtle commonality that is expressed through hundreds of one-minutes plays submitted from around the world. We think and feel much the same things, clandestine emotions and haunting experiences, no matter where we were born.&lt;br /&gt;Then the real fun begins, the process I feel so lucky to be a part of: bringing those pieces to life. You wouldn’t believe how deeply a director and cast can delve into sixty seconds worth of text. For the US contingent, three directors and thirteen actors and actresses, the work itself is an impending energy, always lurking over our shoulders as we hustle from room to room, making discoveries and breakthroughs just as our time runs out…it’s frustrating, rewarding, exhausting and exhilarating.&lt;br /&gt;Oh, but it’s not over. All of the reading and rehearsing, the planning and coordinating, everything we’ve worked toward culminates with the festival itself. 50 plays in 50 minutes is a frenetic ride and the audience, a mix of dedicated returnees and excited first-timers, has never faltered in creating that perfect atmosphere, a mixture of uninhibited laughter, unexpected silences and unbridled enjoyment.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7466135805626090972-4606113835383250454?l=gi60.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gi60.blogspot.com/feeds/4606113835383250454/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://gi60.blogspot.com/2011/06/few-words-from-anthony-ponzio-us.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7466135805626090972/posts/default/4606113835383250454'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7466135805626090972/posts/default/4606113835383250454'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gi60.blogspot.com/2011/06/few-words-from-anthony-ponzio-us.html' title='A Few Words from Anthony Ponzio, U.S. director'/><author><name>Rose Burnett Bonczek</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09383352291223043628</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-u29-ayiKmt4/TgVCECExg4I/AAAAAAAAAAY/nIRzqKsnMNw/s72-c/IMG_2920.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7466135805626090972.post-7039509283442516406</id><published>2011-06-22T17:38:00.005+01:00</published><updated>2011-06-25T02:59:36.775+01:00</updated><title type='text'>Gi60 2011 US and UK Festival - Thank You!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-77E451P8lj4/TgVA_gGsfoI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/i6oWer2FkwM/s1600/IMG_3019.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5621971169535884930" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-77E451P8lj4/TgVA_gGsfoI/AAAAAAAAAAQ/i6oWer2FkwM/s320/IMG_3019.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Our great thanks to everyone who made Gi60 2011: The International One Minute Play Festival a huge success: the playwrights, acting company, directors, stage managers, designers, film supervisors and film crew, and most of all our dedicated audiences. Thank you to the UK audience members who braved the elements and attended at the Viaduct Theatre. The rain couldn't dampen your enthusiasm or support! Thank you to the US audiences who conquered the maze of construction barriers to find the New Workshop Theater at Brooklyn College, and who gave so generously of their energy and wallets (we raised a little over $2,000.00 for next year's scholarship fund). More details on both events to follow.&lt;br /&gt;Gi60 US plays will begin the editing process this week, and we hope to post to the Gi60 Channel on YouTube by late August - Gi60 UK plays may be available much sooner!

At all. I only knew from having worked with Steve in the past, that when he invited you to a party, you said 'yes, and...'. My colleagues in the department of theater at Brooklyn College kind of scratched their heads and said 'OK, that sounds weird, but sure, go ahead.' They gave us the theater, tech support, and I gathered students, alums, and 'Pros from Dover'; professional actors to serve as mentors for our students, and to be calming voices of experience should this evening of fifty plays jump the rails - a very real possibility. One of my acting students, Randall Ehrmann, was a double major in film - and as my nickname was and is "The Luddite", he walked me through the finer points of filming, the technology needed to eventually upload the plays to the web, and he grabbed two friends to ‘volunteer’ as camera operators. We borrowed three separate cameras, none of the equipment really matched, and we had only one performance to get it right. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YAVWMZE1LMs/Ta3Td6wnaGI/AAAAAAAAAE8/JisuFvE20i8/s1600/gi60+us+6.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="240px" j8="true" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YAVWMZE1LMs/Ta3Td6wnaGI/AAAAAAAAAE8/JisuFvE20i8/s320/gi60+us+6.bmp" width="320px" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the night of the show, we had more people in the New Workshop Theater than I had ever seen in that space. Sold out; people were sitting on steps, we snuck others in to the booth, and others huddled near the camera operators having made a solemn vow not to breath or sneeze during the filming. The actors and I looked at each other before going on. I still remember my dear friend and damn fine actress Joan Lunoe looking at me before the show and saying 'Rose, I have no idea what's going to happen.' I looked at her and said 'Neither do I.' I'm sure that was reassuring to hear from one's director... I gave a pre show speech, clapped hands for slate, and we were off. Fifty plays. In fifty minutes. The energy from the audience was insane, I mean utterly, kinetically, joyfully insane. They had never seen anything like it. We had never done anything like it. We not only made it through, but at the end, the audience went crazy. They shouted, applauded, stomped, snorted, and were - well - giddy is the only word that comes to mind. We had done it. We performed 50 plays. In one night. The audience knew something special had just been born; and so did we.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;﻿&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7466135805626090972-1873898255988023308?l=gi60.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gi60.blogspot.com/feeds/1873898255988023308/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://gi60.blogspot.com/2011/05/gi60-new-york-how-it-all-started.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7466135805626090972/posts/default/1873898255988023308'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7466135805626090972/posts/default/1873898255988023308'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gi60.blogspot.com/2011/05/gi60-new-york-how-it-all-started.html' title='Gi60 New York - How it all started'/><author><name>ScreamingMediaProductions</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02098035330821418051</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-94DxHwcjnuw/Ta3Tdu8sG0I/AAAAAAAAAE8/WvpZ_ZACaBA/s72-c/gi60+us+7.bmp' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7466135805626090972.post-863985211519447591</id><published>2011-05-03T20:45:00.003+01:00</published><updated>2011-05-03T20:56:23.865+01:00</updated><title type='text'>A Few Words From...</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

I believe that there is something to that (speaking as someone who has also published haiku). Working with Gi60 over the past several years has sharpened my awareness of the need to make every word count, and that awareness has carried over into my longer work as well. The care one has to take in each syllable of a short form translates into an awareness of the rhythms of language in librettos and full length plays as well.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;In 2009 I had the pleasure of seeing a live Gi60 performance for the first time at Brooklyn College. As several of the actors are regulars I experienced a sense of meeting celebrities; as I had been following their their work for years via video since first becoming involved with the festival in 2005. It was a heartwarming surprise to learn that they felt similarly about meeting me after performing so many of my plays year after year. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Gi60 has also been important to me as a launching point for other publications and projects. 'Waiters for Godot' and 'Call Waiting for Godot' were joined with a longer parody, Whining for Godot, to be published in the Smith &amp;amp; Kraus anthology, Best 10 Minute Plays 2010 under the title The Godot Variations. My 2009 play, Culty-Mates (A Ritual) was included in the Northwest Playwrights’ Alliance’s annual anthology NorthNorthwest that same year. One of my projects from last year, the monologue Lying Makes Me Feel Like a God was the start of an ongoing video collaboration with the actress Zillah Glory.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The multimedia aspect of the festival is another thing that makes it special. The fact of the plays being on YouTube has allowed me not only to enjoy the performance I’ve attended again or experience the ones I’ve missed, but to share and market my writing fairly effortlessly and with the power of an easily accessible medium. The level of skill apparent in the shooting and editing of the videos does justice to the talents of the actors involved.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;I’m really proud to continue to play a part in Gi60.
