Hello All, Due to a change in facility availability at Towson, we have had to shift this year’s Festival Dates to January 23-24, 2026. The JUNIOR Festivial for middle school students the day before, Thursday, January 22nd. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, but we are really at the mercy of Towson’s availability and our contacts there were only recently informed that a significant number of spaces would not be available on the weekend that had previously been approved. We are aware that there is another theatre festival in Frostburg the same weekend, and Unified Auditions in NYC. While not ideal, there is the silver lining that we will no longer be the same weekend as the VA Thespians Festival, and may have more success hiring the teaching artists and adjudicators that we need.
