So, you want to learn more about the MI Thespian Festival? Well, you came to the right place! The Michigan State Thespian Festival is an extraordinary
two day event that encompasses all areas of theatre: crews and actors, and everything in between. During the conference, usually in December, we make the trek to the Capitol in Lansing. The night we arrive we get to explore Lansing, take pictures in the beautiful winter, and help ol' Roy set stuff up for the festival. Here's what the following two days look like:
Price: $150 plus $175 for inducted Thespians or $200 for non-members Official Website: Thespian Info

The night we arrive we get to explore Lansing, take pictures in the beautiful winter, and help ol' Roy set stuff up for the festival. Here's what the following two days look like:
- Shows! There are two featured shows we see performed by high schoolers across the state
- Workshops! Everything you can think of is taught here. Want to learn more about the art of wigs? Mastering a monologue? Kicklines? Anything!
- Bonding! Your days are spent at the conference center, while your lunches and dinners are up to your discretion! Explore the area with friends and have the fun of your life!
- New experiences! Hundreds and hundreds of students with similar interests will be there. Learn new things and make lifelong friendships!
- And more! As a previous Festival goer, I can guarantee you that it is one of the funniest, most exciting, and friend-makingly? things you'll ever do!
