To All Members of the Blumey Awards Family, Sadly we have made the decision to cancel the 2020 Blumey Awards due to the COVID-19 crisis. We made this decision reluctantly, but believe it is the right thing to do. Also, the Broadway League has announced cancellation of the Jimmy Awards, the National High School Musical Theatre Awards in NYC. Many of our peer programs across the country were facing similar issues in mounting their local productions this year. Although it seems far off, we look forward to the 2021 Blumey Awards which is currently scheduled for May 23, 2021. We are all in this together. We will find our way to a bright future and chance to be together again to celebrate great student talent. #BlumeysWillBeBack
