And...they are published in a book that will be available for purchase. We worked on this as a class project....and this year, one of my students was selected as a finalist and will have her play published and produced at the theatre...YAY!!!!!

So excited and proud!!! Every spring, Burning Coal Theatre sponsors the KidsWrite Play Festival, where original one act plays are submitted by local 6th-12th graders. Finalists are chosen from numerous submissions, and if selected, these plays are then professionally produced.

Who needs a Spring Break?....Well, I actually do, but this comes first for the students. It is coming together. Can't wait to show what the final look will be... Make sure to come and see.... "Hadestown:Teen Edition" at Knightdale High April 3-5 at 7 PM

Meet the Cast!!!! Zoe is a sophomore and is very excited to play "Clotho"(Fates). She has been very involved in the Theatre @KnightdaleHS, and is a member of ITS Troupe 7149. She is an A/B honor roll student, who is very passionate about acting and singing.

We were also recognized by the Chapter for donating the most books for the book drive, which will be given to local youth charities. It felt good to give back a little when we don't have much ourselves. I think that says a lot about our students character. Until next year...

And...We won our 6th State Championship (Critic's Choice) and got to perform for the entire 800 plus audience at Wright Auditorium. We took our fountain picture and even got a great annual "jumping" victory pic... I am tired, but refreshed...and definitely blessed...and proud!!!

Words can't even express how proud I am of these young thespians. We travelled to the NC ITS State Festival at ECU this weekend for a weekend of workshops, plays, competitions, and comraderie with the top theatre students from NC. We competed in 15 events...the most ever.
