All-State speech

This weekend I volunteered at the state speech event at Kennedy. I was in the auditorium and working with the one act performances.   These shows are plays in one act and the goal is to tell a story in that one act. If they were very good your group would get to go all-state on February 16  they will perform for the final time if they past this weekend.

             Speech is a very interesting thing because you just don’t make speeches. There is along with one act, mime, choral reading and many others that are listed at this link http://lchs.lewiscentral.org/departments/fine_arts/speech/large_group_speech_categories/  . These categories showcase all kinds of acting and are great to see.

 The only thing about it is that speech performs only really have three completions. First one is districts and if you don’t pass the judges standers, you don’t get to go onto state. That isn’t really a challenge if you practice hard and work hard. The next completion is State and after state is All-State. All-State is this month on the 16^th.

Here at Kennedy our groups improve team has won at All-State speech for the past three years for sure.  Speech is one of those things which I find to be a great thing to watch so if you’re thinking about going to watch All-State speech this year, you should go.
