And here's some great news! We have extended regular registration rates thru this Saturday, Aug. 20th to our Wild, Wild OCTA conference. After that you can still get late registration rates but why wait and pay more?

There are great performances all weekend from award winning shows presented by theaters throughout the state, workshops that would cost you more than our full registration rate if you were to attend them outside of conference, Broadway Vocal Coaches, Tech Experts, Tony Performers, Sing-Alongs,Banquets, Dances, Tech Rodeos and more!
