NEW TO INDIVIDUAL EVENTS
THREE NEW
RULES FOR ALL MUSICAL THEATRE EVENTS
1. A new rule for ALL musical theatre events: “No medleys, screen
plays, or Vegas Style reviews are allowed.”
2. Each musical theatre event is allowed up to one accompanist per
event. Any other musical instrument played will be counted as performers
within the number allowed in the event.
3. A Student accompanist at State must be fully registered; an adult
accompanist at State must be registered as a chaperone or attend with a day
pass. A student who only accompanies an event at Districts that proceeds to
State may attend State as a fully registered student.
TWO NEW
RULES FOR COSTUME DESIGN
1. This old rule that read “Each
design must be executed in full color on a 10" x 15" white display board.” is now replaced by the following new rule: “Each
design must be executed in full color AND displayed on a 10”x15” board.” This
rule change allows you to use watercolor paper that will THEN be mounted on
the board.
2. Computer assisted design is acceptable.
NEW
RULES FOR ALL DESIGN CATEGORIES
All
technical events at state will be scheduled as single
events. We will no longer block all of the tech IE events by time. All like titles will be scheduled near each other
but not as part of a block.
TWO NEW
RULES IN PLAYWRITING:
1. The guidelines for the Character List page have been rewritten to
read: "The
third page of the script will be the CHARACTER PAGE, including a list of the
characters in order of appearance with a 10 word or less description of each
character"
2. Rule
#15 that read, “The student cannot submit a play that has been previously
adjudicated by Florida State Thespians” has been eliminated.
3. Playwriting at the State Festival will now receive ratings.
