CRANSTON, R.I. — Otter Valley Union High School will represent the state of Vermont in the 2019 New England Drama Festival, hosted by the New England Drama Council (NEDC) and the Rhode Island Theatre Education Association (RITEA), from April 15-17.
Following successful showings at the regional and state festival, OVUHS was chosen by the Vermont Drama Council as one of two representatives for the state to the New England festival. Otter Valley performs “The Last Firefly,” a mythical adventure following Boom, the son of Thunder, who must take on the forces of nature in a journey of self-discovery and finding inner strength.
“The festival is an opportunity to connect high school thespians across New England in a shared sense of community and art, and we hope Otter Valley will feel at home in the Ocean State,” said Richard Sylvia, RITEA President. OVUHS will perform on Tuesday, April 16, at 10:10 a.m.
