Spotlight Showcase is Minnesota high school theater’s biggest celebration! Over 1,600 students will participate in the annual awards and recognition event, presented by Hennepin Theatre Trust’s Spotlight Education program. After a year of participating in Spotlight-evaluated plays and musicals, students from across Minnesota take the stage at the historic State Theatre. The event also highlights Minnesota theater educators and Spotlight alumni.

Spotlight Showcase proudly employs professional staff from both the Twin Cities and Broadway to collaborate with students across all areas of theater. Up-to-date information can be found on our website.
