The International Thespian Society is the only theatre honor society for middle and high school students in the United States. Affiliation brings credibility and distinction to students, theatre programs, and schools. It is a visible, positive symbol of the quality of your theatre program.
ITS recognizes, rewards, and encourages student achievement and celebrates the work of students in all aspects of theatre – performance and production. Each student is honored on a national level and gains access to opportunities and resources beyond those of their school.
Apex High School is home to ITS Troupe 6028! As a troupe, we participate in Community Outreach, facilitate Arts Accessibility and Inclusion in our Theatre Arts program, attend Regional and State Festivals, and coordinate Drama Club activities.
Students earn points toward induction by participating in extracurricular Theatre Arts activities at Apex High School. Each point represents ten hours of exceptional work. Once students have earned 10 points, they are invited to join our troupe! Inductions take place in June each year. Additional honors include the following:
10 points - Induction
16 points - Varsity Letter
20, 30, 40, 50, 60 points - Star
