Lauren Marchand as Elsa in the play Frozen.
Earlier this month, the Broadway Education Alliance announced the winners of the 13th annual Roger Rees Awards for Excellence in Student Performance, and Jericho senior Lauren Marchand was named an Emerging Artist Winner.
Marchand will represent the Roger Rees Awards and the Greater New York area at The Broadway League Foundation's the Jimmy Awards (also known as the National High School Musical Theatre Awards) on June 26th at the Minskoff Theatre.
Students from 53 high schools located throughout the Greater New York area competed for the title of Outstanding Performer at the awards event that was hosted by Tony and Grammy Award-nominated artist Jaquel Spivey. A panel of Broadway judges selected the winners based on a solo performance of a song they performed in their high school musical during the 2022-2023 academic year.
To be eligible to participate in the Rogers Rees Awards, a student must have performed a qualifying role in an officially licensed high school production of an eligible show during the 2022-2023 academic year. Lauren played Elsa in the only high school production of Disney's Frozen in New York State, which was presented by Jericho High School, winner of the United States of Frozen competition, sponsored by the Educational Theater Association (EdTA), Music Theatre International and Disney Theatrical Group.
The Roger Rees Awards recognize the importance of theatre arts education and celebrate the exceptional life and career-long artistic excellence of Broadway's beloved actor/director, Roger Rees. Playwright Rick Elice, Rees’ partner of over 30 years, and author of "Finding Roger," said, "Rog would have liked this chance to educate and inspire young actors, to offer a guiding hand as so many were offered to him when he too was a kid with a dream."
