Individual Events: March 30 @ Payson High School
Here is the link to all the ballots for the individual events. Each ballot shows the guidelines for the specific events. **Note: Each school can only take 4 entries per category, so you all have to step up to the plate. As of this date we only have ONE entry for humorous monologues and about 8-9 entries for Contemporary scenes. Might be something to think about.

Drama 3
You guys are awesome to be so dedicated to two projects. We need to make sure I.E.'s are rehearsed to the point where you are getting ready to polish instead of block by the end of the term. One Act needs to have lots of run throughs the next two weeks so make sure that you are always working on your memorization so we never have to worry about that. Remember dates:
One Act: March 23 @ Maple Mountain. Plan to be excused the entire day to watch the other school's shows.
Individual Event: March 30 @ Payson. We're leaving SHS at 2.
