In the Loading Dock Production Company, also known as LDP, students take on all of the many responsibilities of theatre productions. Students act or work with crew for at least one performance in the fall and one in the spring. They also make up the company that performs in the UIL One-Act Play competition.
Loading Dock Productions produces between 4 - 5 shows per year including student directed one-act plays, a school-wide musical, 24 hour plays and productions within both the production classes and outside of school. In the past 10 years, LDP has competed and advanced to the Area UIL One Act Play contest five times, winning numerous acting awards and Best Tech Crew three times. Last year for the first time in decades, our UIL One Act Play, Nation, made it to Bi-district. Students have also competed and won scholarships at the Texas Thespians Festival and Tommy Tune Awards.
Loading Dock Productions is a proud member of the International Thespians Society (Troupe #153) and is one of the oldest troupes in the country. Despite being without a theatre at present, LDP is going strong and making the best of our current situation. We wait to see where this adventure take us!
Big shout out to the parents and staff who have stayed late to help with the musical. We really appreciate your hard work, and are excited to show people what our company can do!
