The annual Spirit of the MACY Awards, founded in 1969 to encourage and celebrate achievement in Southern California high school musical theater, was held May 28, at Segerstrom Center for the Arts. Judges reviewed 58 musicals at 44 schools this year.

The Macy honors shows as well as students, with honors bestowed in categories such as outstanding achievement (for exceptional merit in a demanding role), achievement (for distinction in a demanding role of central importance), and special recognition (for performers who shine in specialty roles).

Rosary students who received awards were part of Tri-School Theatre’s production of Bye Bye Birdie, comprised of students from Rosary, Connelly, and Servite.

Receiving Special Recognition were Maria Braatz ’20, Allison Perea ’20, and Jillian Sarni ’19.

The Achievement Award was given to Molly Renze ’18 and Isabella Rivera’19

Outstanding Achievement was presented to Hayley Johnson ’20 and Sierra Warner ’18
