Over the past three months, a panel of judges has attended musical theater performances at 32 Allegheny County high schools to arrive at the nominees for the 32nd annual Gene Kelly Awards for Excellence in High School Musical Theater.
“Since its beginning in 1991, the Gene Kelly Awards recognize the incredible talent of thousands of students across Allegheny County,” says Mark Fleischer, executive producer of the Pittsburgh CLO, which co-sponsors the awards with the Michael J. Kara Family. “The awards recognize not only the artistic talent of these students but also celebrate their dedication to their communities and schools, both on stage and behind the scenes.”
The awards show will take place on Saturday, May 27, at 7:30 p.m. at the Benedum Center. In addition to the more than 34 Kelly Awards, several cash and university scholarships will be awarded.
