DP: Students present a memorized cutting from a published material, a maximum of 10-minutes in length. The selection may have one or multiple characters. Open to grades 9-12.
Note: Some tournaments just have DP - humorous and dramatic interpretations competing together. Others separate the two categories, into HI and DI. NYCFL tournaments combine DP (HI/DI together).
DUO: Two students present a memorized selection from a published play, novel, screenplay, or short story, a maximum of 10-minutes in length. They each represent one or more characters, and cannot look at each other or touch. Open to grades 9-12.
