ASKING FOR TROUBLE is EST/Youngblood's annual speed-theater freakout.
http://ensemblestudiotheatre.org/now-playing/current-productions/askingfortrouble2011/
Last week 25 Youngblood Playwrights drew a director, a cast and a song from a hat, and then had one week to write a script for that director and cast. Inspired by (and utilizing) that song. Rehearsing now are 95 actors & 25 directors who will bring you some of the freshest plays you'll see this year!
