NORTH EAST REGIONAL THESPIAN FESTIVAL
The 30 members of Trinity Prep's Thespian Troupe 1780 participated in the North East Regional Thespian Festival held November 12-14. High schools from Boca to Jacksonville, representing five different districts, participated. All individual events were filmed ahead of time for the virtual festival. Numeric scoring resulted in an overall ranking of a grade of Poor, Fair, Good, Excellent, or Superior. Out of 28 individual events that Trinity Prep students entered, we received two Good, nine Excellent, and 16 Superior ratings. Isabel Tongson's original play, "The Green Room Effect," is currently being read, and we will know her score in a few weeks. Two of our events won top honors: our large group musical selection and one of our solo musical selections. The large group musical, "Stick it to the Man" from "School of Rock,", consisted of Thomas Lightsey, Sierra Jobman, Levi Kaplan, Stoil Bozhkov, Mason Sadlier, Juliet Myers, Molly Halladay-Glynn, Maansi Chandra, Cece Miller, Kaley Frye, Isabel Tongson, and Eleanor Henderson. Thomas Lighsey's solo musical selection, "No Turning Back Now" from "Circles," was the other event to win the top honor award.
