DRAMA: Regional Acting Competition
REGIONAL SHOWCASE:
Acting Theatre - FEBRUARY 1 at 6:00pm - 8:30pm
Musical Theatre - FEBRUARY 2 at 6:00pm - 8:30pm
The Showcase is free, but donations are encouraged.
The Regional Acting Competition is an educational program that offers Oregon students the opportunity to compete and receive constructive feedback on prepared theatrical material. Using the audition approach, students can find their talents, strengths, weaknesses, and grow as artists. From Regionals, students can qualify for the State Acting Competition. The process begins with Regionals, includes a Final Round of auditions at State, and culminates in a showcase of exemplary entries, representing the outstanding work being done by students throughout the state.
The competition is February 3rd at Sam Barlow High School, BUT the OCHS Regional competitors will be performing their competition on two nights. The Showcase is free, but donations are encouraged.
