CTC's 2022-23 Season

Jr. ITS Troupe 89195 Induction

The International Thespian Society (ITS) is the honor society for theatre students. Membership is granted for meritorious work in theatre arts. Junior ITS Troupe 89195 is a subset of the Carroll Theatre Company (CTC). Any student may be a member of CTC, but only students who have been officially inducted and registered with the EdTA home office are members of the theatre program and the International Thespian Society.

6th and 7th grade theatre leaders are invited to participate in troupe activities as apprentices and are invited to witness and support our 8th graders upon their induction. 

North Carolina Young Playwrights Festival
Playwriting begins at the beginning of the year. Submissions are due in January. ​

NC Young Playwrights is the perfect opportunity for students to receive the collaborative, intensive, professional exposure to the world of playwriting that will create lasting memories and highly beneficial experience. All theatre students have the opportunity to write and submit a play to the NC Young Playwrights Festival. Participating Carroll students are mentored by Mrs. Huffman to ensure guidelines are followed and plays are submitted correctly. Winning plays are published in an anthology and made available for purchase. For more information, visit the NCYPF website.
