On March 12, 2019, over two hundred Theatre students, theatre educators, friends and administrators from many schools in California gathered at the state capitol to meet with legislators and legislative aides. An annual event since 1998, over five thousand students and teachers have participated in this statewide event. Prize-winning Theatre students were invited to perform during the 21st Annual California Youth in Theatre Day. Students were given the opportunity to perform monologues, songs, dances and scenes on the Capitol grounds. Each school and student performer received certificates from California Educational Theatre Association declaring their EXCELLENCE IN THEATRE.
