Each year Region 2 invites between 5 and 8 shows from schools in our region to re-mount their production during the festival. These productions are considered some of the best in the region, and are eligible for National Recognition. In order to be eligible for consideration for this performance and recognition, schools register their shows as Participating Productions. Two respondents attend the show and provide feedback to our regional selection committee, which will then meet in December to determine which shows are invited each festival.  Those shows not selected for a full presentation or those entered as associate productions may be invited to bring a select scene from their show for presentation during the festival.



 Shows must be responded to by December 6th, 2024 to be eligible for inclusion in Festival 57
