in a nutshell: festival of shorts
Central PA Theatre & Dance Fest
June 20-23

We’ve got murder, clean eating, cauldrons, ginger-bread houses, witches, shakespearean legends, roller coasters, hyperbole, sibling rivalry, and a bit of bawdy ribaldry (and yes, a tautology). 


with works by Cynthia Mazzant, Sherri Quaid, Jim Sampson, Colin Waitt, and the winners of the 2024 Central PA Playwriting Competition.

$10 per performance OR purchase a Shorts Festival Pass for $22.50 and gain admission to all 3 different shows, reserved seating, raffle tickets for upcoming Hamlet performances, and a token of our gratitude! Support the Arts!

Starring the Ensemble Studio Players:  Hilary Appelman, Elizabeth Baptista, Michael Berube, Jill Campbell, Mike Casper, Stephanie Gates, Jessica Karp, Hannah Almon Matangos, Carrie Marcinkevage, Paul Marcinkevage, Kathy Morrow, Josephine Pirrone, Adam Swartz, Caroline Tseo, Ann Van Kuren, Justin Vreeland, Laura Waldhier, Mike Waldhier, Lori Wilson, and Megan Wozniak.
