 This year marks the 11th annual Betty Lynn Buckley Awards, and we are proud to announce the nominees from Mansfield ISD.
Named in honor of Fort Worth’s own Tony award-winning actress, the Betty Lynn Buckley Awards celebrate excellence in high school musical theatre across Tarrant County.
A panel of distinguished judges (comprised of local theatre professionals, critics and educators) votes for a winner in each of 16 award categories. Winners in select categories win a $500 scholarship, provided by generous donors who recognize the benefits of this program and impact musical theatre has on the lives of students.
