     Twenty-one Temple Thespians received superior ratings (the highest possible rating) and qualified to advance to nationals from the annual Texas Thespian Contest held November 18-20 in Grapevine.
     Advancing students included Hanna Prince and Melody Oradesky (both solo musical), Kelsi Seiter (stage management), Emily Perkins (make-up design), Janice Cody (lighting design), Mekena McVean (sound design) and Antonio Gordon (theatre marketing).
     Group musical students that advanced included Terry Austin, Michelle Boyles, Jenna Bubenik, Kiara Edwards, Sydney Fisher, Colin Fowler, Andrew Fredette, Saniyah Galbreath, Skyler Gordon, Natalie Greenfield, Ashli Hauersperger, Alivea Johnson, Jayden Maiani, Thomas Painter, Angel Santiago and Victoria Stanley.
     Emily Perkins was one of only two make-up design students in Texas to appear in the technical competition video during closing ceremonies. Antonio Gordon was one of only three marketing students to appear in the video. Hanna Prince and the group musical team were also selected as mainstage finalists.
     Saniyah Galbreath and Terry Austin were selected as All-State Performers and appeared during closing ceremonies. One of Temple's dramatic design teams (Terry Austin, Michelle Boyles, Rochelle Lopez and Alyssa Maggitt) was named one of the Top 5 Designs in Texas and had their work on display during the convention.
     Around 7000 Thespians attended the convention, and Hanna Prince was one of only 40 students to receive a $1000 scholarship.

Saniyah Galbreath and Terry Austin have been selected to perform during the All-State Closing Ceremony at the annual Texas Thespian convention, November 20, in Grapevine. Thirty-five students from across Texas were selected out of the more than 8,000 attending the convention. The students will have a chance to work with singers and choreographers who have performed on Broadway.

Temple Thespians attended the UIL Student Activity Conference (also known as "Super Saturday") on Saturday, October 23, at the University of Texas' Winship Building. Students attended one workshop during each of the three sessions — 9-10:30, 10:45-Noon and 12:15-1:30. Students also visited the Bullock Texas State History Museum and, at 7 p.m., watched a performance of Pflugerville High School's play The Three Musketeers.

Our Town by Thornton Wilder will be presented by Temple High School Theatre Department Thursday-Saturday, November 11-12-13, at 8 p.m. with a Sunday matinee on November 14 at 2 p.m. Tickets are available through CentralTexasTickets.com or from students involved with the show.
     Through the everyday lives of its citizens, this Pulitzer-Prize-winning play tells the story of a fictional American small town (Grover's Corners, NH) between 1901 and 1913. A landmark in American drama and one of the most beloved American plays ever written, Our Town follows the Webb and Gibbs families as their children fall in love, marry and eventually — in one of the most famous scenes in American theatre — die.
     Seating is limited because the audience will be seated on the stage with the actors. Tickets are $10 in advance, $15 at the door (if seats are still available).
     A complete list of the cast and production staff is on the Information Page.
