The Fairfax High School production of '9 to 5' received a school record 13 Cappie nominations. The winners will be announced on Sunday, June 8th at the Kennedy Center.
The Cappies, "Critics and Awards Program", fosters high school theatre critics for regional high school students. Mentored by journalists at newspapers such as the Washington Post, schools provide critic teams that view one performance per school and write full reviews. In late spring, the student critics vote for the Cappies. Five nominees are selected in 35 categories in a wide range of production levels including acting, technical, creative, performance and a special award for student critics.
“We here at Fairfax are just thrilled to have received this recognition," said Erich DiCenzo, Fairfax High School's theater director. "This is an unprecedented amount of nominations for Fairfax High School; and everyone involved is graciously humbled and looking forward to supporting and celebrating their fellow performers, who have undoubtedly invested just as much time, energy, and heart into their own productions.”
