At the regional one-act play competition on Wednesday, Jan. 27, Hill City High School actors will perform with Belle Fourche, Lead-Deadwood, St. Thomas More, Spearfish and Little Wound students at Belle Fourche High School. All schools will compete for two spots in the state one-act festival held the first week in February, judged by a panel of three area theatre professionals, according to a criteria set forth by the state.
This year, Hill City and the other A schools will perform a drama. Hill City’s 10 participating students are showcasing a play entitled “Mine,” which centers on a dying woman whose grown children come home to see her. In “Mine,” several old and new conflicts arise as the family comes together.
