Oakton participates in the National Capital Area chapter of The Cappies.
Cappies is a year-long program for theatre and journalism students through which students attend and discuss each other's shows, write reviews for publication, and at the end of the season decide who of their fellow student performers and technicians should be honored for awards.
The honors are celebrated at the Cappies Gala hosted by the Kennedy Center!
