UIL Competition One Act Play
The Texas 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 1,200 plays participate in 300 plus contests.
The UIL One-Act Play contest is a competition where similarly sized Texas schools present an 18-40 minute play. At each level of competition a judge awards individual acting awards as well as selecting three productions to advance to the next level of competition up to the Regional Level where only two will advance to the State Level. After the awards are announced a judge gives an oral critique to each of the schools. District Contest: March 9th |
Student Directed Performances
At the end of each spring semester Sterling Theatre produces their own play festival which mirrors that of the UIL OAP contest. Advanced Theatre Production Students Direct their peers in a 40 minute production to be judged and critiqued by guest artists. Between 4-6 productions are presented each year and they are entirely made up of student designs and direction. Students get the hands-on experience of directing their own production and experience what it's like to be on the other side of the audition table while working collaboratively with their design team in order to bring their production vision to life.
As a young girl I always wanted to be an actress and I still do today. Joining the theatre program at Sterling High School has enhanced my acting ability and creative mind. I've found most of my friends through practicing theatre and performing." - Kyra Green
