In odd years (2019, 2021 etc), Main Stage is humorous and Studio is serious. Schools may participate in either or both (Studio or Main Stage) of a tri-level series that highlights traveling shows. A maximum of 12 shows per division will advance to the State Festival giving participants the opportunity to present their productions and see a variety of other shows. Main Stage shows are the traditional one-act competition that MIFA has hosted for more than 30 years with larger sets and full technical aspects.
