Pioneer High School's Theatre Guild recently won two awards from National Youth Theatre - an organization that highlights and evaluates high school theater groups - for the school's recent production of "Urinetown: The Musical."
Senior Ashley Park won the award for outstanding supporting actress in a musical for her performance as the show's precocious narrator, Little Sally; and the show's cast received the award for outstanding ensemble.
To identify award-worthy work, NYT sends experts around the country to theatrical productions involving young people; this year, 200 productions were considered.
