College & University Representatives

Student Auditions and Interviews

As the largest state theatre conference in the southeastern United States, the auditions/interviews for high school and transfer students afford your institution the opportunity to meet, to evaluate, and to recruit the brightest young theatre students from Florida.

Please accept our invitation to attend these auditions. Simply complete Forms "A" and "B" online, or print and mail the forms with the appropriate fees to the name and address at the bottom of the forms.

College and University representatives that take place in the student audition evaluations will be invited to a luncheon, which will afford you a unique networking opportunity to meet and form associations with your peers in the educational arts community. Because of the kind sponsorship of Santa Fe College, this luncheon will be free of charge.

College Fair

The college fair continues to be a valuable recruitment tool for colleges and universities. The Fair enables potential students and their parents or guardians to meet your institution's representatives and to view display materials that showcase your programs. If you are interested in taking part in the College Fair, be sure to complete the additional information on Form B, where you can request extra tables and electrical connections. Your participation in the fair will be highlighted in a special Fair section in the Festival Program, which is issued to each participant.

Workshops

Please consider sharing your talents by presenting a workshop for our attendees as a means of highlighting your presence at the festival. The festival offers more than 65 workshops a year, which may be targeted to a specific audience (like educators or transfer students) if you wish. These workshops are listed in some detail in the festival program and are highly sought after, so submit early!

Registration is simple - complete the online submission form found at the left side of this page. You will be contacted to confirm your slot.

Sponsoring Non-Auditioning Groups

Information for Colleges or Universities Bringing a Groups of Students, but not Auditioning for New Students

Even if you are not auditioning students for your program, there are a number of events that would benefit the students of your academic institution.

They could attend the more than 65 workshops conducted by college professors or trained theatre professionals, and with paid festival registration they could attend any or all of the Community Theatre or Theatre for Youth productions.

For those college/university groups that are bringing students but are not participating in any of the FTC auditions, please use the "Group Registration Form."

Your school must pay the organizational membership fee for each student (which includes a Festival T-shirt for each student). The organizational membership fee covers one faculty/staff member.
