Last month, the 2021 Triangle Rising Star Awards took place (albeit, virtually) through the Durham Performing Arts Center. This regional competition brings together high school musical theater students from Central and Eastern North Carolina to perform and compete for the chance to represent the Triangle in The National High School Musical Theater (otherwise known as The Jimmy) Awards in New York City on July 15th. The national competition celebrates outstanding student performances in high school musical productions from all over the United States. The day after the Triangle Rising Star Awards, I had the great pleasure of interviewing both of this year's winners, Elena Holder of Durham School of the Arts and Joshua Messmore of St. David's School. The two of them discuss their experiences with this year's competition, their excitement for the Jimmy Awards, and more.
