SPEECH/DRAMA contest information................

You will work to prepare a performance for the contest tournament to be held this year at Liberty Junior High on Friday evening, NOV 2^nd.  There are several different categories of performances to choose from.

I am going to recommend you PICK 1 and give all your focus to 1 performance. I am so much more interested in you really mastering one performance than struggling through two. But, I will allow you to prepare 2 performances if you really want to challenge yourself. I will allow no more than two performances per participant. This is my team policy.

Once you know what event(s) you would like to do, you MUST EMAIL EMAIL EMAIL me with your final choice by Tues. Sept. 18^th.

If you are doing a duo or group event, it is up to you to organize yourself into a group or duo. If you are doing a duo or group event, one person can email me, but must include ALL of the names of the other members of the duo or group. If thinking about a duo or group, make sure everyone involved is as committed to this activity as you are. It stinks working with someone who is not completely committed and not available to practice when needed.

Much of your performance preparation must be done on your own. Practices may be more like “check-ins” to see your progress and give you guidance.

All published/prepared scripts must be chosen by MON Sept. 24^th. Any original scripts must be written by Oct. 9^th. I have scripts available or you may choose your own, as long as they fall into the guidelines set by IESA.

All memorization must be completed and prepared by the practice on Oct. 17^th

 Practices will be held at Liberty, RM 120, from 2:50 – 5pm on:

MON Sept. 24^th

TUES. Oct. 2^th

WED. Oct. 17^th

THURS Oct. 25^th

MON Oct. 29^th – Full team performance run-through

You may also see me BLUE days, RM 219 during lunch/advisory and in the morning at 7:55am for extra rehearsal/guidance
