SHORT CUTS
A lineup of four ten-minute plays for young audiences
On tour at Miami-Dade County Middle Schools
from October 2023 – May 2023*
​
*Excluding Teacher Planning days, Legal Holidays, and Recess Days
Made for Middle School audiences, the popular SHORT CUTS Tour features a cast of professional actors performing four new 10-minute plays. These age and theme-appropriate short plays are written by local playwrights who reflect our community. This fast-paced and entertaining program empowers young audiences, ages 10-14, to deal with relatable issues impacting them today. The SHORT CUTS live, in-school show is often the first time students experience live theater!
The SHORT CUTS Tour is presented for FREE at Miami-Dade County Public Schools! Low-cost options are available for private schools and community groups. To book a show at your private school or community group, please email ariana@citytheatre.com.
The run time is approximately 40 minutes plus a 10-15-minute post show conversation between City Theatre artists and students. These conversations explore themes and topics presented in the works.
