4 playwrights, 4 directors, 4 world premieres at Viirus in November 2024
Write a play in a week. Rehearse it in a week. From reality to the stage within an unreasonable time frame. Embrace panic, uncertainty, and lack of control in all situations. Don’t think through decisions more than twice. Because the premiere is on Friday!

We give four playwrights a central question and send them each week to a randomly chosen bar in Helsinki with the task of creating material for a one-hour performance. They have seven days to deliver.

After a week, the director and the rest of the team take over the material and create spanking new performing art from it. It’s unbearably rushed – because the premiere is on Friday!
