before you see the one sure thing
what is the voices project?

All of the monologues that you will watch in this performance were created through our young writers‟ program, Fresh Ink. Fresh Ink is for writers hungry for a career in theatre. The program helps writers build skills and the confidence to step into the industry. Emerging writers are matched with experienced mentors who help bring out each writer‟s own voice. When the scripts are ready, we support writers through creative development workshops and public readings to link them to other companies and artists in the theatre industry. The One Sure Thing is the second annual instalment of the overwhelmingly successful The Voices Project. Born from the need for quality scripts specifically tailored for young actors, this collection of seven-minute monologues will challenge the way you look at youth theatre. The Voices Project 2011: Tell It Like It Isn’t was a runaway success. This is a unique opportunity for a first look at the scripts that young people will be performing for years to come.
