- Speech and Debate — Interpreter’s Theatre of “Puffs” by Matt Cox.

For this event schools may enter a team of 3-14 students who will present a 25-minute piece that interprets literature for an audience through dramatic performance. This year, CWI Speech & Debate students presented an Interpeter’s Theatre piece entitled “Puffs” by author Matt Cox, which they will share live with Connections Day attendees.
