A Winning Tradition

Another McMurry student has won the Texas Educational Theatre Association's Playfest competition!

Kathryn Ballinger wrote her play Things We Can't Untie for this past spring's Playwriting class, and submitted it to TETA, with wonderful results.

Our theatre department will have the chance to stage this short production at TETA's annual Theatrefest gathering in January, in Houston, Texas

Things We Can't Untie will be presented again, with three other plays chosen by Charlie Hukill, from the Playwriting class, in April.

Be on the look out for more information regarding this play.
