Ubu Roi Bake-Off with Paula Vogel

Paula Vogel has called for a national Ubu Roi Bake-Off to be performed on Presidents Day, February 19, 2018. During this country-wide grassroots event, Paula will be headquartered at the Playwrights’ Center.

Across the U.S. and around the world, artists, theaters, and collectives will be writing in response to Alfred Jarry’s text and performing it live on Presidents Day in response to our global crisis. Writers will have 48 hours—from noon February 17 to noon February 19—to complete 5-minute plays incorporating ingredients supplied by Paula Vogel. 50 of these plays will be read at the Playwrights’ Center on February 19 by a cast of eight actors. No rehearsal, all instinct.

We encourage everyone, not just playwrights, to write a play. Whether or not you write one, please join us for the reading.
