Congratulations to Dell Stevens and Dylan Walker, both Haltom High School students, for winning the Circle Theatre Playwriting Contest. (More than 100 plays are submitted annually.) Dylan’s play, “Lovers on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown,” is one of four finalists who will have a professional play reading at Circle Theatre on May 7 at 3 p.m. The event is open to the public and is free. Dell’s play, “Man of Three Shadows,” is one of five semi-finalists. Both writers will receive cash prizes, tickets to an area theatre, and time to visit with producers, directors and actors. Dylan will have a scholarship from Texas Wesleyan Theatre waiting for him upon graduation. Haltom Theatre will have a staged reading in May to honor these students and their success. Dylan and Dell join a long line of successful playwrights from Haltom High School. Students study playwriting in Theatre II each year.
