The lights, the glamour, the Kennedy Center...

They built sets, sang and danced and moved audiences with their performances. A number of local high school theater students have been nominated in the 14th Annual Cappies Gala awards at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts on June 9.

The Cappies (the Critics and Awards program) program preps high school theatre and journalism students in the world of theater by publishing their reviews with publications like The Washington Post.

At the end of the year, the student critics vote for 200 student winners with 35 awards that are presented at the Gala.
