They also previewed key Montblanc pieces on display in the boutique, of which included the 90th Anniversary items, a curated collection celebrating 90 Years of Montblanc’s Meisterstück writing instrument.

The creative process of THE 24 HOUR PLAYS in Los Angeles will begin at 10:00 p.m. on Thursday, June 19, 2014 when six writers, six directors, twenty-four actors, and a dedicated production team meet at The Broad Stage in Santa Monica. After the community of artists share a costume, a prop, his or her special skill set, each writer will compose a ten-minute play by 7 a.m. the following morning. By 9 a.m. directors will have selected their pieces and their cast will rehearse over the course of the day. At 8:00 p.m, ink barely dry, the six new plays – interspersed with musical acts – will be performed before a live audience. This celebration of theater will offer Los Angeles’ audience a rare experience to witness the thrill of live theater and the talents of Hollywood’s brightest stars.
This is the eighth year that international luxury brand Montblanc will support the 24 Hour Plays Benefits for Urban Arts Partnership, demonstrating their support of arts and culture.
