|
School One-Act Play Company have advanced to the 2015 University |
|
Interscholastic League One-Act Play State Meet; and |
|
WHEREAS, The Martinsville Theatre's One-Act Play Company |
|
impressed judges at the Region 3-2A One-Act Play competition with |
|
its outstanding production of Picnic on the Battlefield by Fernando |
|
Arrabal to secure a spot at the 89th Annual State One-Act Play |
|
Contest in Austin; the regional triumph followed the company's fine |
|
showing at the district, bi-district, and area competitions, and it |
|
was made all the more special by the fact that the 2014-2015 |
|
academic year marked the first year of existence for the MHS Theatre |
|
Department; and |
|
WHEREAS, Martinsville earned the Outstanding Crew award and a |
|
number of students received individual honors for their work at |
|
regionals, including Collin Davis as Outstanding Crew Member, |
|
Jaramie Martin and Alli Beck as All-Star Cast honorable mentions, |
|
and Halie Morris as Best Actress; and |
|
WHEREAS, Also contributing to the group's success were Mariah |
|
Goree, J. T. Scates, Jasmine Ryan, Karen Salazar-Martinez, Ashlyn |
|
Anderson, Ashlynn Stamps, Laurel Hargis, Abby DeRise, Brianna Ryan, |
|
Brandon Asher, and Gaige Mason; these gifted young Texans were ably |
|
guided by director Matt Perry and assistant directors Becky Martin |
|
and Dawn Ryan; and |
|
WHEREAS, Reaching the state contest requires countless hours |
|
of rehearsal and an unwavering commitment to excellence, and the |
|
members of the Martinsville Theatre's One-Act Play Company may take |
|
well-deserved satisfaction in this outstanding accomplishment; |
|
now, therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas |
|
Legislature hereby congratulate the members of the Martinsville |
|
High School One-Act Play Company on qualifying for the 2015 UIL |
|
One-Act Play State Meet and extend to them sincere best wishes for |
|
the future; and, be it further |
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
prepared for the students as an expression of high regard by the |
|
Texas House of Representatives. |
