Thespian Troupe 5890

Who We Are

Troupe 5890 is Skyline's Theatrical Honor Society recognizing excellence in the theatrical arts.

The International Thespian Society (ITS) is the Educational Theatre Association’s student honorary organization. ITS recognizes the achievements of high school theatre students. Since 1929, EdTA has inducted more than 2 million Thespians into ITS. Having a Thespian troupe at your school raises the profile and stature of your theatre program, making both your school and community aware of the activities and success of your students. A school has a Thespian troupe that is led by a troupe director—Mrs. Fry. Students earn an invitation to be inducted into the Thespian Society by participating in extracurricular theatre and accruing a minimum of 10 points.
