From an idea by director Kevin McEneaney and his Slices of Life evening of mini plays in 2017, ATG revived
his concept last year to great praise.
This has proved to be a hit with audiences and a successful introduction for new writers,directors and actors to Armagh Theatre Group.
Mini Plays offers an opportunity to dip your toe into the acting/writing world. A five minute piece of new writing presented
in our recently renovated Abbey Lane Theatre could be just the spark needed to set of a career in writing and theatrics.
