Students from Troy University’s Department of Theatre and Dance competed and received awards in the Region IV American College Theater Festival held in Montgomery from Feb 3-7. The annual festival highlights selective, peer-reviewed excellence in all areas of theatre.
TROY’s production of “Twelfth Night” was selected as one of five Region IV productions invited to be performed in their entirety at the event on the Main Festival Stage at ASF. Full productions are a highly esteemed component of the event, as only a select few are chosen each year.
Other awards are as follows:
Ashlyn Bradford: Stage Management Region IV Finalist
Weezie Brand– Resilience in Stage Management Award- Region IV
Kole Hovis & Avery Gallahar: Irene Ryan Acting Competition Finalist – Top 16 in Region IV

For more than 50 years, the program has given more than 400,000 college theater students the opportunity to have their work critiqued, improve their dramatic skills, and receive national recognition for excellence.
