Another fun annual event at Noosa Arts Theatre is a performance of several entertaining short plays all around the 10 minute mark.

There will be two shows on 27 August, a matinee at 2pm and evening 7.30pm and on Sunday 28 August matinee only at 2pm.

After the final show, the Audience Choice Award will be presented to the group who performed the best play.
