Show Notes

Shenendehowa High School senior Lily Sinnott had to reach for the proverbial stars in her final high school musical, “Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812,” encouraged by the faith of her director, Bradley Gregg and it paid off.

Sinnott was one of two locals to receive Outstanding Lead Performer's locally and earn a trip to the National High School Musical Theater Awards in New York City, The Jimmy Awards.

“As soon as I knew that the Jimmys were a thing in eighth grade, I was like, I want to do that, that's where I want to go. I made it a goal, started working, taking opportunities, and being grateful for everything.”

Admittedly, a Sinnott fan, I was thrilled to be able to sit down with her and her director inside one of the music rooms on the Shenendehowa campus prior to her leaving for Jimmy's Week in NYC.

My bucket list gained another check as for the second time, Tell Me Your Story, was closed out by a song from a guest.
