TETA TheatreFest 2018 - Deadlines
By Dr. Jerry Ivins, TheatreFest Convention Director of Operations

Friends,

Deadlines, deadlines!! So many deadlines! Want a simple list of the deadlines for TETA’s TheatreFest 2017? Please see below. Plan now…don’t wait till the last minute! ☺

Jan. 9th - Early Bird Rates for many items!
Jan. 10th - Last day to change the hotel reservations without penalty (no changes can be made to reservations after Jan. 10th)

Something EXTRAORDINARY is happening at TheatreFest 2018!! Same as last year’s Convention, 2018 is the least expensive we have had in 15 years!! Time to join us!!


Based on our records, TheatreFest 2018 in Galveston is on the path to be one of our largest Conventions in many years!!
Consider:

Participant Registration:
  • Already over 1000 have registered!
Auditions:
  • Out of the 120 slots for auditions, we have 145 applying for a slot!
  • 51 College/University Auditors have signed up for the Auditions!
DesignFest:
  • We currently have 16 participating in DesignFest with another 25 participating in the Technical Auditions.
PlayFest:
  • We have over 56 entries this year competing for 24 slots!
Exhibitors:
  • 60 booths have been rented!
Obviously, something exciting is happening! Could it be due to the following?
  • Convention rate lower than three years ago! 
  • Hotel costs per room night down $50 from two years ago! 
    • Plenty of free parking 
    • Free Internet 
  • PlayFest, DesignFest and Audition fees waived! 
  • Exhibit booth rates lowered from two years ago! 
  • A beautiful resort like Moody Gardens! 
Please, please. If you have not registered for Convention, do so now! Do not miss this opportunity to join Theatre artists from all over the country.
