On April 1, 2017, Richland Springs High School presented their One Act Play, Macbeth, at the Area contest at Angelo State University in San Angelo. Richland Springs was the first show, and their rehearsal time was scheduled for 6:30 A.M. in San Angelo. Dealing with an early rehearsal assignment, food poisoning from the night before, and other adversities, students still tied for a spot to advance to the Regional Contest. Water Valley advanced through the tie-breaker rules.

The journey of producing Shakespeare’s Macbeth came to an end, but all agreed that the many hours of preparation and the learning experiences had been worth it.

Cameron Parham and Jared Martin, both sophomores, received individual Honorable Mention Awards. Peyton Sloan, a senior, received an All-Star Cast medal. Richland Springs was named the Alternate to Regional.
