Tommy Tune Awards

Theatre Under The Stars

Theatre Under The Stars Tommy Tune Awards recognize and reward excellence in the production of musical theatre by high school students and their teachers in the greater Houston metropolitan area. TUTS invites over 150 high schools to participate each year. The first 45 schools that apply are invited to participate in the program. These local high schools compete in 15 categories including both on-stage and creative roles. In addition to the statue awards presented during the Tony® Awards-style program, eight scholarships are awarded. Developed by TUTS in 2002, the Tommy Tune Awards feature performances from nominees in the Best Musical category, a musical medley with the years Best Leading Actor and Best Leading Actress nominees, and a grand finale including two students from each participating school. The Theatre Under The Stars Tommy Tune Awards are named for Houston native and Lamar High School alumnus, Tommy Tune. A performer, director, and choreographer, Tune has received nine Tony® Awards. Each year, the Tommy Tune Awards ceremony is open to the general public and attended by over 2000 students and their supporters.
