Registration is now open for the festival! Get ready for May 15, 2021. 

Middle school students and teachers from across the state will come together to celebrate theatre virtually on May 15, 2021. There's so many workshops to take, so many songs to sing, so many dances to learn. 
This year, students have the ability to participate in Thespys (performance events), and choose their own workshops.
We have also developed different registration options to be more inclusive of both students and teachers.
