The R. Lynn Wooddy Festival has a 55-minute time limit, bare stage-to-bare stage.  The festival rules follow the One Act Play rules found each year in the Georgia High School Association GHSA Constitution & By-laws.  Schools who participate in the Wooddy Festival often do so in order to receive feedback on their production prior to the annual GHSA competition.  The winner of this festival receives the R. Lynn Wooddy Best Play Award.
