Eastern’s production of “Cats” gets some Cappies

Eastern Regional High Schools 2011 spring musical, Cats, was recognized this week by the Greater Philadelphia Cappies organization for production excellence by receiving 17 award nominations.

Cappies, or the “Critics and Awards Program,” is an endeavor through which high school theater and journalism students are trained as critics, attend shows at other schools, write reviews, and publish those reviews in local newspapers. The GPC then nominates schools based on their performance along with the quality of the Cappies student reviews.

In July and August, many of the top award honorees from around the United States and Canada are invited to participate in the Cappies International Theater, where they perform shows at the John F. Kennedy Center.

Here is a list of the Eastern High School nominees:
