2007 Annual Conference
and Theatre Festival:
"Mountain Masquerade"

The 2007 convention held at Musselman High school had something for everyone, and what a great convention it was! A big thanks to Lori and Mike Stiles and his staff. Here are some of the highlights:

• Beth Harvey and Lori Leigh visited from the Southeastern Theatre Conference (SETC) office to get to know us better and take in the local sights.
• The Scarecrow, an original script written by S. Glenn Brown and directed by Linda L. Brown, presented by Greenbrier East High School took top honors in the Secondary School Competition. The Scarecrow will represent our state at SETC's Secondary School competition.
• The Charleston Stage Company's production of The Exonerated took top Community Theatre honors, as well as a nod from the judges for their ensemble work, and The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) as presented by the Apollo Theatre took Distinguished Play honors.  The Exonerated went on to win the Southeastern Theatre Conference Community Theatre Festival in March, 2008, and the director and cast garnered several individual awards including Best Director, Excellence in Acting, and Outstanding Ensemble.
• Elections were held for Board of Directors for 2007-08.  See the results here

Join us next year at the 2008 Annual Conference, October 31-November 1, 2008.  The venue will be Glenville State College, and our conference host will be Dennis Wemm.
