Last spring, The Children's Theatre of Cincinnati, America’s oldest professional theatre for young audiences, invited local teachers and their classes to participate in an Audio Footlights Podcast Contest. Students were asked to write a five-minute (750 word) fictional play to be read aloud – and it could be about ANYTHING! TCT would then produce the winning works (complete with voice actors and sound effects), and air them on Audio Footlights. Plus, the winners would receive a gift card for their classroom. We received a great number of submissions and we are proud to present our three winners! One of our three winning entries is entitled "THE ADVENTURES OF TAULBEE THE BEAR" by Lydia Messer, 6th Grade, Learning Tree Co-op. Flex your imagination and join us!
