The Second Annual United Solo Theatre Festival

UNITED SOLO THEATRE FESTIVAL™ is an annual international festival for solo performances held in New York City. Through a diverse range of one-person shows, we explore and celebrate the uniqueness of the individual. From openly solicited submissions, we stage the most intriguing productions at the highly acclaimed Theatre ROW in the heart of the New York City theatre district on 42nd Street. Highly experienced performers and untried new talents have opportunities in many categories (e.g. storytelling, puppetry, dance, multimedia, improv, stand-up, magic, drama: tragedy or comedy). The artists also benefit from being presented by United Solo, a company made up of artists and producers with vast experience in solo performance. The festival is curated by Omar Sangare, founder and artistic director, who teaches theater at Williams College and was selected by the U.S. Department of State for a video project that appeared as part of President Obama’s trip to Poland in May 2011. This series of short documentaries focused on Polish Americans who have contributed to the innovation, creativity and vibrancy of America, featuring a wealth of prominent Polish Americans who are proud of their heritage while having an impact on America’s social and cultural fabric.
