The National Theatre is excited to present the Brandon Victor Dixon Awards for excellence in high school musical theatre, a regional partner of the National High School Musical Theatre Awards® (NHSMTA®), also known as The Jimmy Awards®. High schools located within a 25-mile radius of The National Theatre may apply to have their fully-staged full-length musical considered for participation in the Brandon Victor Dixon Awards. Up to 25 schools will be invited to participate in each year’s Awards.
Judges are sent to each school to critically evaluate the performances and offer feedback that is shared with the schools at the end of the year. Musical theatre professionals, educators and enthusiasts are invited to apply here to be considered to join the panel of judges to review these shows.
