This awards competition has been created to bring talented students in musical theater into a professional theater environment in the downtown Historic Theater District. Local area high schools will showcase talented young actors on ETC’s New Vic professional stage, while presenting a competition that will take the top two students first to Los Angeles and then possibly to New York to compete on a national level.

The event will take place at the New Vic on Monday, April 28 at 7:00 pm, for a celebration revue featuring 11 talented teens that have been selected to represent their high schools from Santa Barbara and Ventura counties. The teens will perform and compete in front of a panel of judges.

For ticket information contact ETC’s box office at 965-5400 or visit etcsb.org. Tickets are $10.00. The New Vic is located at 33 W. Victoria Street, Santa Barbara, CA.
