DISTRICT 14-5A INFO
Area 2-III-AAAA AHS Stage Dimensions/ Light Plot Region III-4A Info |
The University Interscholastic League’s One-Act Play Contest, founded in 1927, is the largest high school play production contest or play festival in the world. More than 14,000 Texas high school students in more than 1,000 plays participate in 300 plus contests, which take place from the beginning of March through the three-day, 40-production State Meet One-Act Play Contest. The One-Act Play Contest is supported by more than 200 college and university faculty members serving as critic judges. The League’s theatre program is considered by historians to be the foundation of educational and community theatre in Texas.
Under the guidance of our experienced One-Act Play Director's, AHS is quickly making its mark on the UIL OAP Competition! Students involved with this production will tour the show, attend various festivals, and compete at the Zone, and hopefully, District, Area, Region, and State competitions. AHS has established a goal of being one of the top competitive, entertaining, and talented theatre programs in the state. Students who are a part of this production must commit themselves to this high level of excellence. |
