The League’s One-Act Play Contest, founded in 1927, is the largest high school play production contest or play festival in the world. More than 14,000 Texas high school students in more than 1,000 plays participate in 300 plus contests, which take place from the beginning of March through the three-day, 40-production State Meet One-Act Play Contest. The One-Act Play Contest is supported by more than 200 college and university faculty members serving as critic judges. The League’s theatre program is considered by historians to be the foundation of educational and community theatre in Texas. It continues to be a major factor motivating increasing numbers of schools to offer theatre arts as an academic subject.

Each year our middle school drama teacher takes 13 or 14 kids to watch the State competition. They will spend 3 full days watching all of the sessions from 1A-5A schools. I wish I could go! :(

Thanks P4S...Cameron is one of the kids getting to go watch. Last night "we" had to write a short summary of a play that 4A Montgomery is performing.

Theater Arts/Drama is truly a wonderful thing for our kids to get involved in and we are fortunate to have GREAT teachers in both the middle and high school levels.:D

State is one of the greatest experiences, I was fortunate enough to go all my years at Barbers Hill and there are always eight great shows.
