The fact that Andrew and Renee sant songs from shows that they would later be in is so awesome!

he knew before. he got asked to audition during rehearsals for jimmys and they knew they wanted him, but they had to audition him bc of fairness and stuff
The other guy singing Evan Hansen and Andrews standing right there like ...”just you wait...”
i think its kinda ironic how this medley closes with lines from Mean Girls and Dear Evan Hansen 😂
Whoever composed this arrangement deserves their own award 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Andrew singing For Forever and Renee singing I'd Rather be Me is so ironic
Aww, I felt so bad for the second girl when her voice cracked 😬😬😬

Jimmy Awards is a living reminder that I had missed the greatest opportunities in life just because I did not live in America and study high school there. It makes me want to go back to high school. 😭😍

Jonas De Leon Mijares nah my dude the american education system is fuuuuucked, these kids often have to go to theater companies outside of school and the public schools don’t always properly fund the arts, some people have to fight to even have a budget in the first place :(

heyjonas only certain high schools from each state qualify for the jimmy awards as well. one of my good friends got to go because she goes to very well funded school in a rich neighborhood but i don’t, and so kids from my school don’t even get a chance.

The sad part is for probably for more than half of these people this will be their first and last time on a Broadway stage
Reneé got to sing I’d Rather Be Me and now she’s in that show on Broadway. Poetic cinema
okay i'm a theatre person and even i find this kind of terrifying
The first soloist is amazing at riffing and this is an absolute dream!! I really want to be on the Jimmy's before I graduate high school!

i screamed when they started singing i’d rather be me but they all seriously KILLED IT
I got the experience to see Andrew in Dear Evan Hanson on Broadway and it was so amazing! One of the best Broadway shows I've seen
THIS IS WHAT I WANT TO DO WITH MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!!! also: "and one thought crystallizes like an icy blast" "unlimited" t h e y d i d i t
My high school was finally approved to be considered for an O’Hara award, and next year we’ll be good for Jimmy’s. Seeing how amazing this really is I’m gonna have to work my tail off 😂
The most exciting and special experience of my life!

ksoon07 Hey! I was one of the nominees, this is a Spotify playlist one of the other nominees made, it’s missing a few songs, like “June is busting out all over,” from carousel, and “losing my mind” from follies, “waiting” from the bands visit, “You did it” from my fair lady, and Defying gravity unlimited reference, But besides that everything else is there! Thank you for listening and watching our performance!

kinda interesting to start with a white girl singing as ti moune but still that’s so many people and they’re all so good????? whaaat
I would like to buy the sheet music of that number. Is it possible ?
I literally refuse to believe these are just high schoolers😭😭😭
2:38 ik she cried about this after LOL
whats the song playing 0:12-0:27? Help
i was like... that girl looks like renee rapp! welp.
wiG
Holy shit is this what it feels like to be converted to a religion I'm sobbing??????????
i definitely did not watch andrew the whole time
I know this isn't the nicest comment but I'm seeing a couple of familiar faces from last year and I personally think it's unfair for those nominees to go to The Jimmys twice in a row. Of course they're talented but their regional programs should give that opportunity to someone new.
