Fall for Thespians

Saturday, November 6 | 9 am – 4 pm

Westerville Central High School

Welcome back educators from across the state of Ohio. We have a year filled with opportunities for your students! The first opportunity will combine some of our most popular events on November 6. With virtual and in-person options, this event will NOT be canceled and all can attend. Troupe directors may register as a troupe or students can register individually.

What is Fall for Thespians you ask? It is a one-day event including the biggest auditions of the year for our Thespians. Students will be able to audition for:

Ohio Unifieds: College auditions for those seniors wanting to continue studying performance or technical theatre in college.

All-Ohio Auditions: Students from all over Ohio will come together to put on this year’s musical Fun Home—a musical adapted by Lisa Kron and Jeanine Tesori from Alison Bechdel’s 2006 graphic memoir of the same name. Read the audition packet carefully and be sure to know the topics and themes covered in the musical.

Thespys: Students will compete in an individual or group event. If you earn a Double Superior, you will qualify for The  International Thespians Conference Summer of 2022 and Showcase your piece at the Ohio Thespian State Conference in March 2022. Freshman-Seniors may participate. Learn more.

Fall for Thespians is an in-person event with an optional virtual component. When you review the registration form, you can select in-person or virtual for your students. Registration for the event will go live on September 12 and close at midnight on October 25. 

We Need Judges!

If you are interested in being a Judge for Thespys, please complete that part of registration. If you know of someone who is not a Troupe director but would be a great judge, please have them email me at: karber@ohedta.org

For Ohio Unified – SENIORS only, it will go live at NOON on September 12 and end on November 1.
