We had an Amazing time last night at the 2026 Orpheum High School Musical Awards!
Out of 58 participating school spanning across 3 states , were incredibly honored to have received three nominations for our spring musical The Wizard of Oz! With that being the first time THS has ever participated in this competition that’s a huge accomplishment to have received any nominations and we received not one but three!! To my knowledge we were also one of the smallest schools that participated. Our Students, Families, and community should be proud that our School is being recognized for our accomplishments and hard work in Theater!
We had two students who had the honor and privilege to represent THS and perform on the Orpheum stage! Huge shout out and congratulations to Gage Cubit and Chelsea Martinez! I am so proud of you two!!
Theater is more than a class or a past time it’s an art form that is shaping our world and future. It’s an art form that produces leadership, public speaking, respect, and determination. And I am so honored to be the educator here at THS that I get to help foster this learning for every student that walks onto the stage.
We were up against the best of the best in this competition and although we did not bring home an award we brought home determination and a hunger to strive to be even better next year. Before we ever left the Orpheum several of my students were already talking and asking how soon we could get started and what all we needed to do to make it to the orpheum stage next year!
This is only the beginning for theater at THS! See you next year HSMAs! The Wildcats are coming back!
Huge shoutout to all the students and parents who were in attendance last night to help us represent THS Theater!
