BTWHSPVA Theatre Presents: The One Act Play Festival
Get ready for an incredible showcase of student talent! Theatre’s One Act Plays are almost here! This year’s festival will be presented in three performance blocks, with four unique plays featured each night. You’ll need to attend three nights, if you want to catch them all. The detailed schedule will be revealed closer to opening night!
Week 1 Performances | March 31, April 1 & April 2
Week 2 Performances | April 7, 8 & 9
This festival marks the final capstone project for the 12 seniors in the Directing Class, each of whom has selected a published one‑act play to bring to life. In true BTWHSPVA fashion, these productions are cast with actors from multiple grade levels, giving underclassmen another exciting opportunity to perform and collaborate.
The festival also highlights the incredible work of our Stage Management, Costume Design, Lighting Design, and Sound Design students, who will be showcasing their technical and creative talents across this multi‑day event.
Mark your calendar and join us for two weeks of creativity, storytelling, and standout performances from our amazing theatre students. It’s one of the most exciting traditions of the year, and you won’t want to miss a single night.
