2018 Blumey Awards Best Actress Medley featuring 2018 Blumey and Jimmy Awards Best Actress Winner Reneé Rapp! The Blumey Awards is presented by founding sponsor Wells Fargo.
these are kids that spent two weeks with each other learning from professionals in the business. they’re friends or, if there’s any drama, they know they’re being viewed by every eye in the industry during that moment
The industry aspect you’re referring to applies more to the Jimmy Awards (the national high school musical theater competition). The winners from our regional Blumey Awards competition go on the the Jimmy’s - but we do not invite agents to our specific sessions/rehearsals/program.
saffie girl I’m pretty sure it’s because she won the Jimmy’s... The Blumey’s is a regional competition that’s the level below the Jimmy’s, meaning that you have to win the regional competition where you live to make to to the Jimmy’s.
I think it would be hard to go to school with these women because if you were in the singing or musical theater departments, you would never get any lead roles, they would.
I know this video isn’t just about Renee, and all the people in this video are so talented, but I really liked seeing Renee do a totally different character than Regina. It really shows her flexibility as an actress
Charlotte My suspicion, based with working on local / regional HS theatre awards, is the mics are shared so this was the easiest solution to get performers quickly set up and not require an audio tech during their hair and makeup process.
a tape and go situation after they are ready is a safer bet, why make the process more complicated and risk technical issues when it's hardly necessary for the competition.
nala beans you probably don’t care anymore but they do this a lot in more professional theatre settings especially for women. It’s something to do with the way we sing that it picks it up better I think. Most broadway productions I’ve seen do it like this
Izzy CB it says it in the beginning but okay. Here's the musicals (in order of appearance): Into the Woods(bakers wife), Cinderella(Fairy Godmother), Into the woods(witch), Big Fish(Sandra Bloom), Aida (Aida)and You're a Good Man Charlie Brown (Sally) :)
im really confused so what's the difference between the jimmy awards and the blumey awards like I know that there like two different things but are they like connected idk . . . can someone please explain this to me
There are a bunch of regional programs like The Blumey Awards around the country! The Best Actress and Best Actor winners from each program go on to The Jimmy Awards!
I completely agree. She was missing the fire, pain, and passion that are required of that song. And she didn’t belt that last note which I found very strange.
MacersTheBoss no i saw her performance it was great and she deserved the win and was way better than her competition here as well,, she’s great leave her out of the picture & i just don’t think these other ladies stepped up to the plate. like i said they all have amazing voices,, acting wise it was all very disappointing. Renee’s finalist solo at the Jimmys was amazing , very different than what you can see up here
I think the witch and Renee smashed actually! The first note Renee sane I was hooked and wanting to cry, you can see it in her face. Her voice is so soulful and that one riff she does kills me, you just note she won lol after that riff
