Original Performance
Event Description:
o Competitors in this event are to present material of their own creation. Poetry, prose, drama, humor, mystery, spoken word, or any other form of literature is acceptable so long as it is original work and is appropriate to present in a school environment.
- Time: 4 - 6 minutes. If the speaker goes over a 30 second grace period the contestant may not be awarded first place in the round. Likewise if the speaker uses less than 4 minutes.
o There is a one-step rule in this event, and students may present sitting or standing. The focus in this event is the presentation of original work, not the physical interpretation of literature. No props are allowed, though sitting on a chair or stool is permitted.
