It's that time again!
The 4th Annual
HURRICANE SEASON
will blow through Los Angeles July 27th to August 19th 2007
We are proud to present the 4th Annual HURRICANE SEASON, a new works festival and playwright's competition.

Each of the first three weekends of
HURRICANE SEASON will feature a new program of one-act plays that have never been produced before.  The fourth weekend will be a re-staging of the first three weekend favorites.   The plays will be selected by members of the Eclectic Company Theatre for a professional production. 

At the end of each program, the audience will cast their votes for their favorite play of the evening.  A cash prize of
$100 will be awarded each weekend to the playwright who receives the most audience votes. 

A “play-off” will be held the fourth weekend with the top three audience favorites competing for an additional
$400, making the Grand Prize for the festival a total of $500.
