X-treme Theatre
X-treme Theatre is an annual event sponsored by the Centerville High School Theatre Department. The students must write, direct, design, act, and sing in an original theatre production. This event originated in 2007 and has continued annually. To prevent planning ahead a set of rules dictating specific items that must be included in the show are revealed twenty-four hours before the performance. These items may be characters, specific props, certain words, and various other requirements (such as a musical number). The event starts at 7:30pm on a Friday and the script or scripts are written overnight with production and casting beginning at 7:30am the next day. The performance begins that Saturday at 7:30pm. The show traditionally includes an improvisational component at the beginning of the show.

Famous quotes containing the word theatre:
“The poem of the mind in the act of finding
What will suffice. It has not always had
To find: the scene was set; it repeated what
Was in the script.
Then the theatre was changed
To something else. Its past was a souvenir.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
