2 win musical theater scholarships
Alex Finke and Mimi Klipstine Dick are the winners of The Human Race Theatre Company’s fourth Annual Stephen Schwartz Musical Theatre Scholarship competition.
They were chosen from among 10 finalists who performed at The Loft Theatre April 26. Eligibility is limited to high school seniors and college students from the Dayton region who are majoring in musical theater or plan to.
Each prepared a song by Schwartz and another musical theater number. Scholarships are $2,500 for a college student and $1,000 for a current high school student.
Finke, a University of Michigan junior from Centerville, sang “Corner of the Sky” from the musical “Pippin” and “Pulled” from “The Addams Family.”
Dick, an Interlochen Arts Academy senior from West Milton, performed “Defying Gravity” from “Wicked” and “Blow, Gabriel, Blow” from “Anything Goes.”
Other contestants were Jamard Richardson, Mary Kate O’Neil, Bradley Farmer, Joanna Draper, Blaine Boyd, Alyssa Hostetler, Jenyth Rosati and Lucian Smith.

Too bad there are no connections to Wright State University. They have a strong theatre program supposedly.
