One-Act Play -- Montrose HS

Montrose began competing in the Class B One-Act Play Contest in 2002. In 2002, 2003, 2004, and 2006, Montrose qualified for the State One-Act Festival and earned State Superior Awards for its show, along with individual and ensemble acting awards. In 2005, Montrose qualified for the State One-Act Festival and earned several individual acting awards. We are proud to carry on a tradition of theatrical excellence at Montrose High School.

In 2007 Class B (that's us!) presents drama. Class A presents comedy. Class AA presents either (or both!).
