Stuart Rogers' Studio x Cease & Desist Theatre Collective present GRIMM

A spark of inspiration. A ticking clock. A whirlwind of creativity.

Polaroid Plays is a fast-paced festival where writers, directors, and actors collaborate to bring brand-new 10-minute plays to life—in just a few weeks.

Each playwright received a few lines from Grimm’s Fairy Tales and a chance to step into the world of the set. From there, they had just one week to craft an original piece.

Next, directors and actors had 14 days—and only 12 hours of rehearsal—to shape and stage the story.

Now, after weeks of passion, risk-taking, and discovery, we’re thrilled to present these bold, fleeting snapshots of storytelling.

Three weekends. Multiple plays. Infinite imagination.

Join us for a festival where fairy tales transform, boundaries blur, and anything feels possible.
