LeadCon

LeadCon, short for Leadership Conference, takes place at Houston County High School in Warner Robins, GA. LeadCon 1 is an invaluable opportunity for troupe directors to get everything they need to start the year strong with Georgia Thespians. While attendance is not required, it is highly encouraged—especially since we’ll walk through the entire registration process step-by-step. You’ll also have direct access to the full Georgia Thespians Board, including those who coordinate specific programs. If you have questions about ThesCon, this is the place to get them answered.

​

Advanced Ticketing Incentive

As a bonus, troupe directors who attend LeadCon will receive early access to the conference show ticket selection process. Please note: Only the official troupe director on file with EdTA qualifies for this incentive. EdTA only recognizes one official director per school. If you're unsure who is listed for your troupe, we recommend verifying that information with EdTA.

For more information please visit the Show Ticketing page or contact Drew Doss at drew.doss@gathespians.org.
