Finding Inspiration in Every Turn
Topaz has proudly been at the forefront of theatrical arts competitions since 1972. Throughout the years and across numerous cities, we've built a vibrant community of countless studios and thousands of contestants who form our extended Topaz family. Many of dedicated teachers who now inspire students were once competitors in our events, showcasing the lasting impact of our competitions. Join us in the love for the arts and the journey of growth that it fosters!


Our Story
Pat and Bob Heath were visionaries in the world of theatrical arts, pioneering a competition framework that set a standard for excellence. Their innovative approach not only captured the imagination of but also inspired countless others to adopt and adapt their model. With that their work continues to resonate, proving that great ideas can transcend time and influence generations.
Topaz alumni have had the incredible opportunity to perform alongside legends like Cher, Michael Jackson, Madonna, and The Pointer Sisters captivating audiences around the globe. Today, Randy and Ric, the youngest sons, play vital roles in shaping the future of Topaz. While Randy is dedicated to guiding the organization forward, Ric and his wife run a thriving gymnastics school with students competing on the international stage. Though we mourn the loss of Bob in 2023, Pat remains passionate about Topaz and is currently enjoying her time in Las Vegas.
