One Act Festival

The LOST Theatre Company has run the One Act Festival each year for the past 25 years. This event offers the chance for new writers and directors to air their work on the London fringe in a friendly and appreciative environment.

Running over two weeks, the One Act Festival presents a diverse and stimulating programme of both new writing and more established work. Open to writers, directors & performers of all ages, genres and artistic backgrounds; all we ask is that each show must consist of only one Act and be between 20 and 45 minutes in length. One of the primary aims of the Festival is to encourage the development of new talent. Every year we invite an adjudicator to watch all the shows and to provide constructive comment and criticism of each show at the end of every evening. If you are a budding Director with no play or a writer with a play and no Director, we also welcome your entries and will try and match you up.

The application process for this years festival is now OPEN !!
