24 Hour LA Sept 1080x608 1

Since 2002, The 24 Hour Plays have brought together creative communities in Los Angeles to make work over the course of a single day. After a successful spring show, we’re back at The Hudson Theaters on September 23, 2024. Distinguished artists from the LA entertainment community will come together for one night only to create six brand new short plays written, rehearsed and performed in just 24 hours.
