The International Thespian Society is the only theatre honor society for middle and high school students in the United States. Affiliation brings credibility and distinction to students, theatre programs, and schools. It is a visible, positive symbol of the quality of your theatre program.

ITS recognizes, rewards, and encourages student achievement, and celebrates the work of students in every part of theatre, performance and production alike. Each student is honored on a national level and gains access to opportunities and resources beyond those of their school.

Apex High School is home to ITS Troupe 6028. As a troupe we take part in community outreach, work on arts accessibility and inclusion in our Theatre Arts program, attend regional and state festivals, and coordinate Drama Club activities.

How students earn induction

Students earn points by taking part in extracurricular Theatre Arts activities at Apex High School. Each point represents ten hours of exceptional work. At 10 points, students are invited to join the troupe. Inductions take place in June each year.
