Our video showcases are finally returning for the 2023-24 National Youth Arts & University Arts Showcase. We will be accepting submissions until November 30, 2024. Results will begin to be posted in January with the Showcase Honorees and then the National Finalists and countdown to the National Champions. To participate, please submit the form below and send us a video of you singing any song or performing any monologue you choose (everyone can make one free submission to our showcase, and NYA members can submit two videos). To provide us with the videos, you may either include a link in the form below or email the video to us. You can also email a headshot and brief program bio for the website (and a resume if you'd like us to include it in a portfolio that we'll put together for the agents we're in contact with). Videos should have been filmed over the past year. The highest-ranked adjudicated NYA & University Arts showcases will be eligible for both regional and national Showcase Honors.  

Email for headshots, resumes, and videos: rob@nationalyouththeatre.com

Age Group: Generally your age group will be the last year of school you had started when the video was made. For example, if filmed the summer after 11th grade but before you started 12th grade, your age group would be 11th grade. The College Division is for anyone age 18-22 who is no longer in high school, or any current college student age 26 and younger. If you're unsure about your age group, please feel free to contact me.

If needed your video submissions can span two different age groups -- a submission for this school year and a submission for the school year just passed. 

Awards/Nominations: The Showcase Honors are separate from our NYA Awards ceremonies, but you can have your showcase also considered for our NYA or University Arts Awards for our Soloist or New Song categories by checking the "NYA Awards/Nominations" checkbox below. Both songs and monologues are eligible.
