At Roosevelt every spring, we hold our One Act Festival, in which we showcase many different One Acts. Each One Act is about 10 to 15 minutes, and they are all student directed (and in some cases, even student written). They are a fun opportunity for students to experiment with the different aspects of putting on a play, and getting a closer look at how many things actually go into making a play.

“1000 Cigertes”, directed by Julia Tartaro

The musical will be directed Professor Elliot Moffitt.
