Local Thespians Advance To State Competition
Redmond Proficiency Academy (RPA) Thespian Troupe #7715 recently competed in the annual Oregon Thespians South Regional Acting Competition, winning 14 ribbons for excellence in numerous acting categories.
“In a year where it’s hard enough to complete any daily task, let alone compete via an entirely new format and yet they still took home fourteen ribbons,” Theatre Director Kate Torcom said. “It’s a testament to the tenacity and true heart of this theatre department. These students truly put themselves out there and I am pleased to see their dedication recognized.”
An all digital event this year, students were given from Feb. 6-12 to submit their acting competition videos and judges had from Feb. 13-22 to rank them and submit scores. Results were announced on Tuesday, Feb. 23 via the Oregon Thespians Instagram account.

After all, health officials still warn against travel during the pandemic. But Snider had been planning her big move since last summer. For her, the teaching job waiting for her abroad was worth it even though she knew her decision could prompt derision from those around her. I knew I wanted to get out and do something adventurous, the 22-year-old, who graduated in May with a degree in psychology, told CNN. I didn t know what I wanted to do I just knew I loved to travel. Some people aren t open to new ideas, and were like why are you going?
