Fond du Lac High School’s Sister Act Receives Multiple Center Stage Awards

Fond du Lac High School’s musical, Sister Act, has been recognized as an award-winning performance by the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center.  The entire cast and production staff can take great pride in receiving Center Stage High School Musical Theater awards in 5 of the 11 award categories including Outstanding Overall Production, Outstanding Ensemble, Outstanding Performance by a Lead Actress – Zakia Trotter, Outstanding Performance by a Supporting Actress – Marissa Krueger, and the Show Stopper Award – Sydney Sebert. 

Throughout the 2017-18 school year, 17 local high schools participated in the Center Stage High School Theater Awards program where participating students had the opportunity to attend 8 workshops with professional artists at the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center, and had the opportunity to ask questions and explore different aspects of theater.  

A team of trained adjudicators attended each participating school’s musical production and provided educational feedback, ultimately determining the recipients of this year’s Center Stage Awards. Scores for each production were tabulated and the top qualifiers were nominated to represent their school at the professionally produced showcase on May 19 at 7:30 p.m. at the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, May 4. 

At the showcase, one outstanding lead actress and one outstanding lead actor will be announced as Best Actress and Best Actor. Chosen through a separate audition process, these two performers will represent the Center Sage High School Musical Theater Awards program at the The National High School Musical Theatre AwardsTM in New York City on June 25. Participants in that program will audition for scholarships, learn from professionals in a week of workshops and perform on stage at the Minskoff Theatre.

Tickets for this performance are $15 for adults and $10 for students and go on sale Friday, May 4 at 10 a.m. Tickets can be purchased at the Fox Cities P.A.C. ticket office in person or by phone (920) 730-3760 or through Ticketmaster online or by phone at (800) 982-2787.
