Harper High School August Wilson Competition Team Highlights
In partnership with Court Theatre, Harper High School has competed in the Chicago-wide August Wilson Monologue Competition. This program helped set a solid foundation for the theatre program at Harper High School. This is a very competitive competition that invites student actors from around the Chicago area to perform monologues from The Century Cycle plays written by August Wilson. The first round allows between 400-500 students to compete. The field is narrowed to 60 for the semi-finals round. The field is narrowed once again to 20 students for the finals. These students perform and compete on the Goodman Theatre stage in downtown Chicago. So far, Harper HS has placed nine students into the finals round at the Goodman Theatre in the last seven years.
