Presented in association with Montclair Plaza, One Colorado (Old Pasadena) and Santa Monica Place, THE MALLPLAYS were the final stage of a Mall Touring Initiative designed to bring theater to shopping malls. In true site-specific festival format, three original short plays were performed simultaneously in each mall, followed by Cornerstone's centerpiece production. Performances were free and allowed the shopper/audience members to see as many as four plays during one visit to the mall. The Festival featured a total of nine original plays created by Cornerstone-affiliated artists, plus Cornerstone's ensemble creation, FOOT/MOUTH.
