Allen Otto – Contest Manager
Allen Otto has been involved with UIL One-Act Play since 2001, working in competitions from the Zone to State levels. He holds a B.A. from Trinity University, where he directed and performed, and a Juris Doctorate from the University of Houston School of Law. He is currently the chief trial attorney in the Crimes Against Children Division for the Harris County District Attorney’s Office.
Otto also continues to be actively involved in theatre in the Houston area, including directing shows and coaching summer theatre camps for high school and middle school students. He has also worked with the Houston ISD to build and grow participation in elementary, middle and high school UIL tournaments, and has coached high school students in acting, performance skills, and public speaking.
In addition to One-Act Play adjudication, Otto is a UIL certified contest manager and has helped organize contests since 2009. He has served as a judge for various UIL events at the District, Region, and State levels.
In accordance with UIL regulations, only students listed in the Official Eligibility Notice may be in the stage and dressing areas. Only eligible students may participate as members of the contest company.
ASU provides the basic unit set.
Dressing rooms will be provided for each school. You may plan to leave personal belongings there during performances – and you should retrieve them immediately after the performance is concluded. Please leave valuables with a parent or sponsor.
Students from ASU’s Department of Visual and Performing Arts will act as hosts for the One-Act Play teams. A university host will be waiting at the loading door of the auditorium when you arrive to unload – and will be able to answer questions, direct unloading of scenery and props, and assist in any other way needed.
