Festival of One Act Plays

Kyneton’s Festival of One Act Plays – this event celebrates the creative spirit of our community and showcases some of the finest theatrical talent in Victoria. In 2024 the Festival takes place for the 66th time, with theatre companies from all over the state – and perhaps even from interstate - participating for a number of generous awards and prizes.

This year's theme is ‘Love and Marriage’, and we invite anyone with a flair for drama to submit their entries. Whether you choose to write an original play or you know a published play that fits the theme, whether you are a seasoned playwright or a first-time writer, we want to hear your voice, see your vision and enjoy the performances on stage. The only requirement is that your play must make reference to the theme of ‘Love and Marriage’. Whether it’s a comedy or a drama depends on your creative vision.

The Bluestone Theatre in Kyneton will serve as the venue for this event. Its stunning architecture forms the perfect backdrop for a night of drama, laughs, entertainment and engaging performances.
