What is Georgia Thescon?
Georgia Thescon is a thespian convention hosted by Georgia Thespians, an affiliate to the Educational Theatre Association, and attended by thousands of Georgia High School Theatre students at Columbus State University. It is a 3 day, 2 night trip filled with performances, lectures and tons of different workshops. If interested, students also have the opportunity for individual events or IE’s to be submitted for competition. Winners of IE’s will continue on in competition potentially up to Nationals. Certain events even present possible scholarship rewards to those who win. Students interested in attending must be an inducted thespian in MJHS's Troupe #8590. An induction will be held in the fall of new students.
