RPA junior earns international playwright honors RPA Redmond Proficiency Academy junior Aubrey Luse REDMOND, Ore. (KTVZ) -- Redmond Proficiency Academy junior Aubrey Luse was recently awarded a Superior rating for her play, “The Plant Crusade,” from the Educational Theatre Association, an international organization dedicated to providing high school students access to theatre education. “The Plant Crusade” is about an awkward, poetry-loving student named Ophelia, who has recently realized that she's gay. What follows is a story about what it's like to be LGBTQ+ in a less-than-accepting time period, dealing with high school, and the long road to being accepted (as well as accepting herself).
