About the Show

On October 21, 2024 at 7pm, distinguished artists from across the nation’s entertainment industry will come together at Town Hall for the 24th annual production of The 24 Hour Plays on Broadway. 

Since 1995, The 24 Hour Plays have been bringing creative communities together to write, rehearse and perform new plays and musicals in 24 hours. The 24 Hour Plays on Broadway is our annual flagship event where stars from theater, film and television write and perform new work that speaks to our current moment on a Broadway stage.

Actors scheduled to participate include Avantika (Mean Girls), Cat Cohen (Only Murders in the Building), Josh Hamilton (Eighth Grade), Jen Tullock (Severance), Ato Blankson-Wood (Slave Play), Rachel Hilson (Love, Victor), David Burtka (How I Met Your Mother), Larry Owens (Abbott Elementary), Devon Bostick (Diary of a Wimpy Kid), Dylan Gelulah (Smile 2) and many more.

The 24 Hour Plays begin the evening before the performance, when the actors, writers, directors, and production staff gather for the Meet and Greet. In one dynamic hour, each person shares a prop and costume, and actors show off their special skills and something they’ve always wanted to do on stage. With this creative fuel in mind, the playwrights stay up all night writing world-premiere short plays. In the morning, the directors and actors return to launch into Broadway’s fastest rehearsal process and at 7 PM, the curtain rises on a performance of six never-before-seen new works.
