Moore High School students Gabby Llanusa and Luke Peterson were recently nominated for the Kelli O'Hara Awards through OKC Broadway. The awards will be given at 7 p.m., May 31 at the Civic Center Music Hall in Oklahoma City. 

From the OKC Broadway website:

OKC Broadway is a partnership between the Civic Center Foundation and The Nederlander Organization.

The Kelli O’Hara Awards were created by OKC Broadway to celebrate outstanding achievement in Oklahoma high school musical theatre. The program highlights the exceptional students and teachers who devote their time and passion to making a home in their schools for the performing arts.

The winners of the Kelli O’Hara Awards for Best Actress and Actor will participate in the National High School Theatre Awards, where they will receive professional training and compete with winners from dozens of other regional programs to a national audience.

NHSMTA®, otherwise known as The National High School Musical Theatre Awards® or The Jimmy Awards®, was established in 2009 by Pittsburgh CLO and Nederlander Alliances, a division of The Nederlander Organization, to elevate the importance of theatre arts education in schools and reward excellence in student performance.

The program impacts over 100,000 students annually who participate in high school musical theatre competitions sponsored by forty professional theatres throughout the US. The NHSMTA® is a national celebration of outstanding student achievement in high school musical theatre that recognizes individual artistry in vocal, dance, and acting performance, and honors teachers and their schools’ commitment to performing arts education.
