After filling up in record time, we are pleased to share the company of Play-in-a-Day 2026!!! 30 artists from 25 different towns throughout Massachusetts (and Rhode Island!) will come together to create 6 world premiere plays in only 24 hours!

Tickets in-person and live-streaming tickets are available here: https://givebutter.com/play-in-a-day-festival-2026-8wnunp

All tickets are pay-what-you-want, and while we do not want cost to be a barrier for anyone to join in the celebration, this is also our annual fundraiser - so do with that info what you will ;)

Please note that while our roster is currently full, we will keep a waitlist open up to the day of the festival and, historically, have been able to accommodate most of the waitlist as schedules shift. You can join the waitlist here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe7WFJ2qeuGGQ9N7qAn476I32hlFmM0AB6X5cYG6eCyQHmjtg/viewform?usp=sharing&ouid=101584849497429052789

Yorick Ensemble’s 11th production will be the regional premiere of Samantha Hurley’s dark comedy play, I’m Gonna Marry You Tobey Maguire

“It’s 2004, and 14-year-old Shelby Hinkley has kidnapped Tobey Maguire, at the height of his career, to force him into marrying her. Samantha Hurley’s laugh-out-loud dark comedy, steeped in Y2K nostalgia, explodes our para-social relationships and the obsessions that detonate them.”

For this production we will return to Hovey Players’ Abbott Memorial Theater.

Open auditions will be announced at a later date.
