Thirteen CNMI students departed Saturday, June 21, for the International Thespian Festival being held in Lincoln, Nebraska. Two more students, already in the U.S. mainland for the NFL competitions, will join them.

They will have a busy week: staging two one-act comedies to be performed in the Howell Theatre and the Carson Theatre at University of Nebraska; attending workshops on all aspects of theatre and film; competing in individual events in monologue, duet acting, solo musical theatre, mime, costume design, set design, and film; and attending plays staged by the top student theatre groups in the nation.

The CNMI students who won the chance to participate in the ITS Festival by participating in several rounds of competition in the CNMI are Johnna Lubuguin (Saipan Southern High School), Ryan Gutierrez (SSHS), Richille Denora (SSHS), Miki Nadia Dela Cruz (Kagman High School), Sung Yul “Tommy” Baik (Marianas High School), Moon Hso Lee (MHS), Young Min Park (MHS), Myrene Evangelista( MHS), Matthew Wheat (MHS), Reece Brown (Saipan American Education Foundation), Royze Banados (Hopwood Junior High School), Dayanara Flores (HJHS), Anna Rose Deleon Guerrero (Mount Carmel School), Sung Woo “Jimmy” Baik (MCS), and Victor Sablan (MCS).

Their teacher escorts are Wesley Foster of MHS, Dora B. Miura of SSHS, and Shauna Brown of SAEFS. Harold Easton (MHS), the Chapter director, will join them as well.[B][I] (PR)[/I][/B]
