SEE THE BROADWAY STARS OF TOMORROW!
The Jimmy Awards® spotlights talented teen performers nationwide.
This program is affiliated with the Jimmy Awards, the culmination of the Broadway League Foundation’s National High School Musical Theatre Awards program. Each June, some of the most talented high school students in the U.S. get a chance to perform on a Broadway stage! These triple-threat teens sing, dance, and act at the Jimmy Awards, a musical showcase at the Minskoff Theatre. It’s a nationwide celebration of arts in schools involving more than 140,000 students.
Many Jimmys alums have gone on to perform on Broadway. Recent examples include Andrew Barth Feldman and Josh Strobl (Dear Evan Hansen), Reneé Rapp and Kyle Selig (Mean Girls), Eva Noblezada (Hadestown), Antonio Cipriano (Jagged Little Pill), Christian Thompson (Ain’t Too Proud— The Life and Times of the Temptations), and Tyler Eisenreich (West Side Story).
It’s an event many kids fantasize about. You can get in on the act! Search “Jimmy Awards” on YouTube to watch Jimmys nominees from the past decade in performance at Broadway’s Minskoff Theatre.
