Central High School Theatre took home three awards last week in Kansas City for their musical ‘Big Fish’.

The Blue Star Awards Ceremony was held Friday at the Starlight Theatre.  According to a news release, Junior Joey Myers received Outstanding Actor in a Lead Role for his portrayal of Edward Bloom, the costume crew received Outstanding Technical Crew, and Central received the Outstanding Costume Design and Construction (Tier II) award.

As part of Myers’ award he will take a trip to New York City to participate in the National High School Musical Theatre Awards in June.

The St. Joseph School District said the Blue Star Awards at Starlight in Kansas City are patterned after Broadway’s Tony® Awards and recognize exceptional achievement in musical theatre at the high school level.
