On Saturday, October 15, Oral Interp traveled to Brandon Valley for the Speaking Lynx Tournament. After 3 rounds and finals, our Reader's Theatre was awarded 2nd place! Reader's Theater consists of Presley Slaba, Jackson Rolston, Trenton Rolston, Charley Kocer, and Macee Stimpson. Our speakers transform into multiple animals for their rendition of 'Barnyard Slam!' Characters include a spotlight-seeking Yo Mama GOOSE (Presley), a thoughtful quack of a DUCK (Trenton), a moo-nificent COW (Macee), a Stage-HOGger (Jackson), and a limping equine with a chronic Charley-HORSE (Charley). Characters had to transform into many other characters, including a mouse, another horse, a lamb, a turkey, a farmer, a rooster, and a little bird. This hilarious rendition of 'Barnyard Slam' by Dian Curtis Regan has every audience roaring with laughter.

Also performing this weekend were Jenny Barnett (Serious & Poetry), Jessica Barnett (Serious & Storytelling), Presley Slaba (Storytelling & Duo), Trenton Rolston (Humor & Duo), Jackson Rolston (Humor & Duo), and Macee Stimpson (Duo).
