She Loves Me's Zachary Levi Congratulates the Stars of Tomorrow at the Eighth Annual Jimmy Awards

The Jimmy Awards celebrate the talent and love for the theater that can develop during a student's time in high school. Sixty-two students from across America competed for the National High School Musical Theatre Awards for Best Performance by an Actor and Actress at the eighth annual presentation of the Jimmy Awards, with the talent showcase featuring both ensemble and solo performances. Amina Faye from Charlotte, North Carolina took home the award for Best Actress; her performance as Sarah in Ragtime made her stand out as a finalist for the competition. Los Angeles native Josh Strobl, who played Link Larkin in his high school's production of Hairspray, received the Best Actor Award. She Loves Me Tony nominee Zachary Levi hosted the ceremony on June 27 at the Minskoff Theatre. As you can tell below, the Jimmy Awards are a very serious occasion. Congratulations to all the up-and-coming performers who remind audiences where enthusiasm for the arts begins!
