Company of Fools is thrilled to present its first annual virtual play festival.The Dare to Fail Fest! (DTFFest) is comprised of five 10-minute plays (out of over 50 submissions) selected by a CoF committee, headed by Literary Director, Cameron Cueva Clarke and Director of Motley Endeavors, Clare Solly. These works all revolve around what is to “dare to fail gloriously.” The selected shows: Counting Sheep by Rishi Chowdhary Three absent-minded bank robbers run into some hiccups along the way. Dare to Fail Gloriously by Monroe Oxley While trying to make a viral video you lose sight of the ones you hurt. Nincompoop by Sarah Congress Meet Dennis, the handsome new director of marketing and strategy at the tech company Nacromantics. Though his boss, Gloria, is charmed by his looks, Executive Assistant Vicky sees right through him....and his fake resume. Wanted: Scapegoat, No Experience Necessary by Dan Borengasser Those who shun responsibility for their actions and want to blame someone else for their shortcomings often look for a scapegoat…some innocent party who never chose that role. After all, who would ever want to be a scapegoat? The Watch by Michael Hagins Two henchmen on guard duty await their fate at the hands of a spy...maybe? The festival is a part of Company of Fools’ ongoing commitment to the digital theatre space, as well as the commitment to support unproduced/unpublished playwrights. This festival is free to view for all and will premiere Friday, February 24th at 7 p.m. (ET) on the Company of Fools’ YouTube channel.
