Chicken Hat Plays Return: 8 Plays Written, Directed, Performed In 24 Hours

DULUTH, Minn. – Eight writers, eight directors and 40 actors got together last Friday to create eight different sketches with Rubber Chicken Theater that were performed in front of a live audience within 24 hours.

Common Cameo Dan Hanger

FOX 21’s Dan Hanger was the common cameo for all sketches.

It was a lot of dedication and a lot of hours, but a lot of fun.

Everybody met for an hour Friday night.

Writers picked random pieces of paper with topics on them for who, what and where categories.

The writers then went home to get their ideas on paper for full-blown plays that had to be ready by 8 a.m. Saturday.

Actors and directors then took it from there to sketch out the scenes at Harbor City International School’s theater before performing to a packed house.

There were many, many laughs, nerves and just an all-around good time with some very talented locals.
