Wanganui Collegiate, Whanganui Girls College, Feilding High School and Palmerston North Girls' High School are also scheduled to perform in the festival.
Regional representative Paul Collins is excited for the event to be held at Whanganui Girls College, where he is a drama teacher.
"This is my fourth year in charge of regionals and it's exciting as it's the first time the event has been at Whanganui Girls. We've been moving the event around different schools in the area each year, so to have it at Whanganui Girls has been good for me as I've had a bit more control over it," he said.
"There's plenty of talent coming, including a group of Year 9s and 10s from Whanganui High School which is very young for this, but it's good to see them in it."
Mr Collins, also a board member of the New Zealand Shakespeare Globe Centre, said it is encouraging to see younger people involved with Shakespeare because they are starting to try to push it at a primary school level.
The event is organised by the New Zealand Shakespeare Globe Centre, which also runs 24 regional festivals around the country.
Tickets are on sale at the door and cost $5 for adults and $2 for students.
