The Dare Project is a laboratory for writers to create new work.  Each writer is dared to write a ten-minute play.  The dare can be anything—a genre, a line of dialogue, a character—as long as it challenges the writer.  Once they've been dared, a writer has one month to write, one month to rehearse, then the play is presented in front of a packed house as a one night only event. 

As we continue with The Dare Project, taxdeductible theatre will use the techniques discovered here, and expand our seasons to include new full-length plays developed in collaboration between writer, company and audience.  We hope to continue to find new voices.  We hope to create memorable experiences for all involved.  Most importantly, we hope to challenge ourselves and our community to follow one basic rule: demand bold theatre.
