Since 2002, The 24 Hour Plays have brought together creative communities in Los Angeles to make work over the course of a single day. On March 10, 2025, we’re back at The Hudson Theaters, as 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. A portion of the proceeds will be directed to relief efforts for families affected by the LA wildfires.
