What Are The Thespys?

Broadway has the Tonys, Hollywood has the Oscars... now Thespians have the Thespys! 

The Thespian Excellence Awards, or Thespys for short, recognize the highest level of achievement in school theatre performance and technical theatre. This educational program (formerly called Individual Events or IE) gives Thespians the opportunity to receive constructive feedback on prepared theatrical material and technical designs. A student may compete in up to 3 events.
