Force of Nature Boldly Goes Where No RUSH Has Gone Before with “2026: A RUSH Odyssey”
Burbank, CA – Lightsabers? Check? Vulcans? Check. Xenomorphs? Check. Force of Nature kicks off their 11th Season by taking their signature RUSH Play festival from Earth to beyond other galaxies and right back into a theater in North Hollywood. Jump to lightspeed with 7 brand spankin’ new original plays set in the universes of some of Science Fictions’ most celebrated movie franchises: Alien, Dune, Predator, Star Wars, Star Trek, Planet of the Apes, and Avatar.
But, what is a “RUSH” you may ask? The RUSH is Force of Nature’s unique play festival that unites artists in a collaborative whirlwind of creative energy. The premise is deceptively simple: actors, writers, and directors are teamed together by lottery, then together select a handful of prompts - in this case, famous movie quotes and a random prop or two. Playwrights then have one week to author an original, short play tailored to their cast and these prompts. Directors and their casts then rehearse, tech, and mount the entire production 3 weeks later. It’s fast, fun and always results in a memorable show for audiences and talent alike.
So, reserve your seat for this March as we transport you out of this world, into the stars, and beyond. Boldly RUSH where no RUSH has gone before!
