This is the 6th year that Broadway San Diego is producing the competition locally—it is the local branch of the National High School Musical Theatre Awards which has been in existence since 2009. Both the local and national competitions are programs of the Nederlander Organization.
The San Diego high school competition of the Broadway San Diego Awards will be held at the historic Balboa Theatre in Downtown San Diego on Sunday, May 26. Cash awards will be provided for Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Musical Production. One male and one female champion will then move on to represent our region at the National High School Musical Theatre Awards also known as the Jimmy Awards in New York on June 24, 2019. There they will meet and perform with champions from across the country and compete on a Broadway stage for a chance at winning $10,000 toward a college scholarship.
