Canterbury's Upper School Theatre One-Act Receives State Bid
For the second consecutive year, Canterbury's Troupe 5782 will be performing a one-act at the Florida State Thespian Festival.
Nine high school theatre programs from around Southwest Florida hit the stage at the District 7 One-Act Competition on Monday in Broward County, vying for one of two state bids. Canterbury performed their one-act "An Experiment", receiving superiors across the board and a bid to states.
"I am ridiculously proud of these students," exclaimed Upper School Theatre Director Aaron Jackson. "Two years in a row... wow, I am just blown away. It is uncommon for a program to receive a bid two years in a row."
Mr. Jackson went on detail how the one-act competitions are completely student led. From back-of-house to front, the students controlled and directed every aspect of the production.
Meet the troupe performing "An Experiment" at the state competition: Macy M. '25, Ellie A. '24, Charlotte T. '25, Walter B. '23, Cameron W. '23, Faith W. '25, Ezri M. '23, Jersey H. '23, Abby K. '25, Ava S. '25, Shennan N. '26, Neal V. '23, Julian V. '23, Riley L. '25, Sophia B. '25, Isabel P. '25, and Ella C. '25.
Congratulations Troupe 5782 on your superior performance!
