The Jerry Awards, one of Wisconsin’s High School Musical Awards Programs, encourages, recognizes and honors excellence in high school musical theater. The program began in the 2009/10 school year as the Tommy Awards, and was renamed in 2017/18 season to The Jerry Awards after philanthropist and arts supporter W. Jerome Frautschi. Educators and industry professionals review productions at 100+ high schools and community theaters in 31 counties around the state providing valuable feedback. The program elevates the importance of musical theater within high schools.

The Jerry Awards program culminates in a show with performances by the outstanding award recipients. It is a truly magical night filled with outstanding high school musical theater performances.
