What is "short and sweet"

Short+Sweet (originally known as Short & Sweet) is a multi-form arts platform presenting festivals in theatre, dance, music-theatre, comedy and cabaret across Australia and Asia. The one common thread between all festivals is that all works presented - be it theatre, dance, music-theatre or cabaret - must be ten-minutes or less. Short+Sweet's vision statement is: a more creative world ten minutes at a time. Their flagship festival is Short+Sweet Theatre Sydney, the largest ten-minute play festival in the world.

Short and Sweet is a 1992 album recorded by the American singer Little Annie (real name Annie Bandez, also known as Annie Anxiety).

The album was produced by Adrian Sherwood for his On-U Sound productions and features members of Tackhead, notably the guitarist Skip McDonald and bassist Doug Wimbish.

The track "Bless Those (Little Annie's Prayer)" was re-recorded by Living Colour on their 2009 album The Chair in the Doorway.
