Our Lionheart Thespians (Troupe 7417) have earned honor troupe status this year! Congratulations and way to represent East! Pictured from left to right are: Lillian McCaul, Haylee Bennick, Theresa Strebeck, Sean Lawson, and Audrina Miller.
Troupes earn honor status through a rigorous application process through the Missouri Thespians state organizatii , which includes an application, a portfolio, and a presentation.
Each troupe must earn 35 points through a variety of activities, including full-length productions, student-directed productions, original one-act productions, public performances, variety shows, technical designs, outings and activities, conference attendance, teaching workshops, community outreach, and community service.
The portfolio serves as visual evidence of the troupe's work in the above categories (as submitted on the application), and the presentation involves the students presenting their portfolio to a judging panel.
