How long does it take to make theater magic happen? Months? Years? A lifetime? Maybe that’s true for some creative “geniuses”—but Owens Community College’s performing arts students are fired up and ready to make it happen a lot quicker than that. In Owens’ fifth annual Theatre Express show, twenty-four intrepid thespians write, cast, rehearse and perform brand-new plays over a twenty-four hour period, with a bit of inspiration and a whole lot of coffee. It’s the theatrical equivalent of a high-wire act, and there’s no telling what you’ll see. And it’s free!
Saturday, September 22, 7:30pm. Owens Center For Fine and Performing Arts Studio Theatre. 30335 Oregon Rd., Perrysburg. 567-661-7000.
