Again this year, in an effort to make all Thespys judging fair and equitable all Thespys will be submitted virtually at registration.  Many states are already using this system and find it to be much more fair and equitable using consistent judges across the board.

​

     * One Act/Short plays may be submitted virtually or performed in person at the regional festival.

     * All Superior Thespys will still qualify for the ITF Thespys showcase auditions

     * We will still be split into five regions (north, two southern, middle school and rural) as far as awards go and the top 15% of superiors in each region, in each category will be invited to audition for the State Conference showcase and have an opportunity to compete for Thespy grants to ITF.

     * The top scoring One-Act/Short Play from each region will be invited to compete at State Conference for the ITF Chapter Select Showcase

     * Regional festivals will be held in person at The Meadows School, possibly a Northern location TBA and possibly one other location,  and will include a Thespys awards ceremony, one act play festival and a showcase performance (WIP) for every school registered.
