B.U.S. 5
Bricolage Urban Scrawl (B.U.S.) is Bricolage’s annual fundraiser that takes the form of a 24-hour theatre festival.
We give 6 playwrights 12 hours each to write a 10-minute play inspired by a 90-minute ride in a city bus. Then we challenge 6 directors and 24 actors to stage and memorize this brand new material over the next 12 hours. 24 hours after our initial meeting, we present 6 original works inspired by Pittsburgh’s city, landscape, and people.

“This is the troupe's annual fundraiser, but as fundraisers go, B.U.S. is as original, as ambitious, and as much about the art itself, as they come."
– Bill O’Driscoll, Pittsburgh City Paper
