Judges Needed High School Theater Recognition Program
(RIVERHEAD, NY, September 21, 2012) –– East End Arts’ Teeny Awards Judging Committee is seeking qualified volunteers for evaluating high school theatrical performances on the East End for the 2012-2013 academic year. The Teeny Awards is a high school theater recognition program, founded and run by East End Arts since 2002. The program, entering its 11th year, recognizes and celebrates talented theater students across the East End of Long Island. The judges are a very important component of the Teeny Awards as they adjudicate all performances and determine the most outstanding performances to receive the highest honor: a Teeny Award.
“We are looking for people who are knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and can make a commitment to attend at least four high school productions during the school year,” said Morgan Vaughan, Teeny Awards Coordinator. “This is a wonderful opportunity for people with a theatre background to make a difference for students in high school theatre.”
Judges will be selected based on experience and knowledge of theatre. Judges attend high school productions anonymously and adjudicate students with the use of an evaluation tool based on the academic rubric. Orientation is provided. Theatrical performances take place at 15 high schools in eastern Suffolk County. All judges are invited to the gala awards ceremony in June 2013.
Applications for judges are available at http://eastendarts.org/TEMPfiles2012/Teeny2012-13JudgesApp.pdf as well as by contacting Teeny Awards Coordinator Morgan Vaughan at teenyawards@eastendarts.org or 310-600-4296, or East End Arts at 631-727-0900.
