Lakeview's Troupe 3630 Receives High Honor at ThesCon
Lakeview Academy's Troupe 3630 was on center stage at ThesCon 2024. Joining 6,000 attendees from across the state, Lakeview's group Thespy, (comprised of Kathryn McWhorter, Abby McMahan, Leyla Ozcelik, William Hake, Abigail Baker, Parker White, Anabelle Baxter, Hannah Cobb, Bella Caplan, Alyssa Gay, Hannah Baker, Case Beverly, and Lydia Abell), was selected to be one of only ten Showcase Performances in the closing ceremonies and was the closing Thespy on the main stage in front of over 2,500 people. In addition, Abigail Baker, Leyla Ozcelik, William Hake, and Parker White were selected to open and close the conference as members of the All-State Theatre cast. Abby McMahan and William Hake auditioned as juniors for over 50 colleges and universities nationwide and received multiple callbacks. And finally, Troupe 3630 was recognized for the 12th straight year as a Gold Honor Troupe- the highest recognition a troupe can achieve.
At ThesCon several of our students competed in the Overall Superior Thespy Callbacks. Emilia Horton (Costume Construction) and Hayden Silcox (Stage Management) earned high scores as they presented their work in front of a panel of adjudicators in the Technical Thespy category. Emilia Horton also showed her versatility by competing in the acting category with two contrasting monologues, again earning high marks. In addition, Kathryn McWhorter, Parker White, Abby McMahan, and Will Hake sang and competed with two amazing duets that were both crowd and judge-pleasers!
