6th Annual Tales Told in Ten
2025-04-11 - 2025-04-12
Olympia Family Theater has there 6th Annual 24-hour play festival, TALES TOLD IN TEN!
April 11-12 at Olympia Family Theater in Downtown Olympia.

Olympia Family Theater Presents: TALES TOLD IN TEN!
OFT’s 6th Annual 24 hour play festival!
OFT’s 6th annual original one-act play festival, TALES TOLD IN TEN, is back this spring! Six playwrights, six directors, and a troupe of intergenerational community actors will come together to craft six brand-new 10-minute plays – all in just 24 hours in a feat of creativity and teamwork!
On Friday evening, writers receive a surprise theme prompt along with additional creative challenges designed to push their storytelling skills to the limit. They have overnight to craft their scripts, incorporating these unexpected elements. The next morning, directors and actors dive in, working together to bring the scripts to life in a single day of rehearsals. By Saturday night, the festival culminates in a high-energy, one-night-only performance—where anything can happen! Along the way, we’ll build community, tell new stories, embrace the artistic pressure cooker, and, of course, eat all the snacks.
