Description
The Iowa State Thespian Officers are ready to ride this leadership roller coaster with you in their roundtable discussion! Together, we're on a mission to explore all the ups, downs, and sometimes upside-downs of what it means to be a theatre leader. You will have an opportunity to share and engage in an enriching discussion on what leadership in theatre really is within our schools, troupes, and theatre departments, especially in the age of COVID-19. We are excited to hear from you what your plans are as we move forward together as a theatre community.

About Our Presenters

The 2020 State Thespian Officers are thrilled to be with you for Iowa's first ever virtual Leadership Day! Coming from high schools all across the state, the State Thespian Officers work closely with the Iowa Thespian Chapter Board to make awesome Thespian events happen. Throughout the day, they will be leading roundtable discussions about leadership that can help you with your own theatre program. Also, if you're an STO candidate, don't forget to join us for the How to Be An Iowa STO at the end of the event.
