A Little Help For the Property

The committee will provide several big properties that can be used by the contestants if they wish to.

The properties are:
1 set of sofa and it's table
1 coffee table
1 book case/table with books on it

By providing these items, we are NOT saying that the contestants cannot use their own property. We just hope that this arrangement will lighten up the groups' load in carrying the things that they need on the day of the competition.




Entry Population

We are happy to inform you that there have been 14 groups joining this competition so far. As the deadline is prolonged until March 6, 2009, we expect more schools will send their representatives. Is your school one of them? The buzz is on and things are just getting hotter by the minutes. So come on, join the party!

NEW REGISTRATION DEADLINE

Since we believe there are more schools out there that need more time to assemble their groups, we decide to extend the registration deadline. The new deadline for entry form and fee is March 6, 2009. Do not waste this chance. Gather your forces and sign up now! We are waiting.

Frequently Asked Questions - Updated

Q: Can each school send more than 1 group?
A: Yes, it is possible. And we haven't seen any reason to limit the number of groups sent by one school.

Q: How many members are there in a team?
A: Each team consists of 10 people. 7 of them are the actors/actresses, while the rest (3) can function as either sound operator, lighting operator, or other positions that are regarded important by the group.

Q: Can the lighting and the sound be operated by the school's teacher(s)?
A: As much as we appreciate the teachers' eagerness to help, we are sorry to inform you that all the members of the team must be students. That means, including the sound operator, music operator, or others.

Q: So, can the teacher help the students to arrange things on the D-day?
A: No, s/he cannot. All the preparations done on the day of the competition is solely the responsibility of the students that join the team. The teacher can accompany the team until they enter the incubation room (further information about the incubation room will be given in the Technical Meeting).

Q: Can the group modify the dialogue in the script?
A: No, you cannot change the script's dialogue whatsoever. You have the freedom to interpret the script, but not changing what is written there.

Q: What if there is a change of team member after the registration?
A: You may have a change of your member(s) as long as we are informed before the Technical Rehearsal (April 6-10,2009). Any late information will affect the name(s) written on the certificates.

Q: Can we bring and submit the entry fee on the day of the Technical Meeting?
A: No, it is not allowed. Groups that haven't paid the entry fee according to the schedule are considered withdrawing themselves from the competition.

Q: Are we allowed to use microphones in the performance?
A: No, you cannot use any microphones in the performance. The use of vocal chords is an essential part in representational acting. Moreover, the theatre room is a classroom sized room, the use of microphones are unnecessary.
