About 12 Minutes Max

12 Minutes Max is a performance lab for new and experimental works that was first developed by On the Boards in 1981. In this series, artists present 12 minutes of material, while audiences get an opportunity to be the first to see works-in-progress; some of which will go on to become full-length pieces. 12 Minutes Max has inspired similar programs in Vancouver, B.C., Bellingham, Salt Lake City, Chicago and Houston. Works presented range from performance art to dance, from experimental theater to sound art, from spoken word to comedy, and more.
