I would say also in DI&HI
Kirk Scarbourough, Greg Hernandez....
i saw kirks this weekend and it blew me away.... he was in my prelims, semis and finals... and it was one of the best peices ive seen this year.....
And Gregs HI is just either gonna do really well or really bad.... he does The Wizard of Oz.... which many may think is over done.... but he like recreates it... its so crazy....

If Corn was taking his Di to state i would put him on the list no doubt.... i wish u where... ur di is like magic.... ur odl one at least is the only ive seen....

Brian Bloss
Chloe Sykes
John Berry
Bridget Skaggs

[Theatreguy]

How dumb am i... also add stephen rushin and kim n. to the list......... for duet....... and kims hi.....

[Corn]

I don't know how to quote people so Thank you Stephen and Zach. With people like you two in OO it makes my decesion lean more towards DI. My coach decided since I was a state finalist last year in OO that OO will be my best shot out of OO and DI. aw...Jeff I was one of your list earlier for HI and now I'm not :( . Is it true that you can only do 2 I.Es and a duet now, not three I.E's?

[Theatreguy]

yep

[xxLusciousZechxx]

I thought it's always been two IEs and one Duet.
