Directors and Coaches,

We are excited to be hosting Grand Prairie High School’s Middle School Theatre Festival on December 6, 2025. The tournament will take place at Grand Prairie High School in the Dallas/Fort Worth Area. All events are open to 5th graders through 8th graders. Students in 5th grade may enter any event, however, only 5th graders are allowed to enter the 5th grade monologues. Participants may not cross-enter in more than two events per section and any cross entering is at their own risk.

We hope to make the events as student friendly and fun as possible. Our goal is to make sure your students have a great time and continue to love theatre!
