Director: Janete da Rocha
Janete is pleased to be returning for her third Ten-Minute Play Festival. The last two years were unforgettable, and she can’t wait to see what this year will bring.
While she spent much of the 2000s and early 2010s involved in community theater back in the NY/NJ area, it wasn’t until she moved to Korea that she began directing. She was the stage director for Camarata Musical’s productions of Little Shop of Horrors and You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown. Last year, she directed Seoul Players’ production of Samuel Beckett’s Endgame.
