St. Louis has talent and was showcased this year by St. Louis’ own Anna Wright and Gage Williams as they competed in the Jimmy Awards®/National High School Musical Theatre Awards® on Monday, June 26 at the Minskoff Theatre in New York City. The Jimmy Awards® are presented by The Broadway League Foundation and the Pittsburgh CLO. With 96 nominees from 48 regional awards programs, the evening was hosted by stage and screen star Corbin Bleu.

Longtime Muny Teen and 2023 Liberty High School graduate, Anna Wright, was named a Jimmy finalist and performed her solo “I Cain’t Say No” from Oklahoma!. “I’ve been watching the Jimmy Awards® every year since middle school— it always seemed so magical and out of reach,” said finalist Anna Wright. “This year I was able to confirm the magic as it was right in front of me. My biggest take away from the week must be getting to experience my peer’s own unique artistry that makes them who they are. I could not be more thankful for the support of young artists from my incredible mentors.
