The 14/48 Projects is taking The World’s Quickest Theater Festival outside with 14/48: Outdoors at Seattle Repertory Theatre. Lightning-fast theater under the stars, a wide variety of seating options, and introducing the Jerry Manning Beer Garden. 14/48: The World’s Quickest Theater Festival operates under a simple premise: gather some of Seattle’s most daring theater artists and put them in a pressure cooker. But the challenge is far from simple, and that is 14 plays written, cast, directed, rehearsed, scored, designed, and premiered in 48 hours.
