Thematic Interpretation is an event in which competitors select three or more pieces of literature (whether plays, poetry, prose, or songs) and arrange them to speak to a particular theme. Though the speech is memorized, the performer uses a three-ringed binder with the script in it as if they’re reading from a book.

Note

The NCFCA’s Biblical Thematic must include at least one selection from the Bible, and also includes a visual aid of some sort.
