Two months after the last performance of Beauty and the Beast, the club was still rehearsing and performing. But, this time it was on the stage of Shea’s Performing Arts for the 2017 Kenny Awards. The cast put together a medley of four songs and blended vocal and choreography to put on a highlight performance of the night. The entire day at Shea’s students impressed Shea’s staff with talent and outstanding character. Compliments poured in about the students and Starpoint was well represented at their second Kenny Award appearance.
As for the awards, 10 schools were nominated for the 2017 Kenny’s. Of the 12 different award categories, Starpoint’s Beauty and the Beast received 8 nominations, tying them with two other schools for the most nominations. From those nominations, the club received 2 well-deserved awards. Jake Grear a junior at Starpoint, received “Best Actor in a Supporting Role” for his role as LeFou. And the production was also recognized for “Best Technical Design,” making this the second time the musical club crew has been awarded. Two years ago they received “Best Scenic Design” for The Phantom of the Opera.
Starpoint Musical Club is honored to be nominated again for the Kenny Awards at Shea’s Performing Arts Center. This is Starpoint’s third nomination in the last four years. Previous productions of The Phantom of the Opera 2015, and Beauty and the Beast 2017, have received 6 Kenny Awards and a total of 20 Kenny Award Nominations. The 2018 Kenny Awards will take place on May 12th at Shea’s Performing Arts Center where all cast members from nominated schools are given the chance to perform on the professional stage.
