News Release North Platte Public Schools
North Platte High School Theatre Department will host their Line 634 Invitational on Nov. 12 starting at 8:00 a.m. in the NPHS Performing Arts Center.
The North Platte High School Theatre Department will be hosting 13 area schools for a one act competition this Saturday.
“We are doing some rebranding this year and chose to change the name to Line 634 Invitational because in Hamlet, Act II, Scene 2, Line 634 Hamlet says, ‘The play’s the thing,’’ said NPHS theatre director Brittany McDaniel.
NPHS will start off the competition by performing at 8:00 a.m., followed by the other schools. The schools competing on Saturday include Sutherland, Maxwell, Holdrege, Hershey, Mullen, Paxton, Sandhills Public Schools, South Platte, Hitchcock County, Pleasanton, Broken Bow, Stapleton, and Ogallala. Awards will be presented at 7:00 p.m. and they will include first, second, and third place, best technical show, and outstanding performance by an individual in a show.
There is no admission to get in, but they will be collecting donations at the door to support the theatre department.
Concessions will be sold in the commons area and there will be a few other fundraising items for sale including school spirit earrings in a variety of school colors.
