Blake Stevenson Named Best Male Vocalist at CAPPIES; Two Tartans Named Critic Winners

In addition to the awards, there were several performances at the gala, including St. Margaret’s students performing an excerpt of the Upper School play Boeing Boeing at the gala.
Three St. Margaret’s students were recognized as CAPPIES winners last weekend for their contributions to high school performing arts in Orange County.

St. Margaret’s junior Blake Stevenson was awarded best male vocalist for his performance as Father in the Upper School musical Children of Eden. In addition, sophomore Elena Plumb and freshman Caroline Ullem were each named critic winners for their work in reviewing shows as part of the CAPPIES award process.  

The awards were announced at the CAPPIES Critics and Awards Program, which took place last weekend at the City National Grove of Anaheim. In addition to the awards, there were several performances at the gala, including St. Margaret’s students performing an excerpt of the Upper School play Boeing Boeing at the gala.

The CAPPIES is a national writing and awards program sponsored by the Orange County Department of Education. Its goal is to promote and recognize excellence in writing, performance, design and technical disciplines. High school theater and journalism students are trained to attend and constructively critique local high school productions. Local newspapers like the Orange County Register publish the top reviews, and toward the end of the school year more than 200 student critics vote on the reviewed shows.

In all, St. Margaret’s received 16 CAPPIES nominations for their work in the Boeing Boeing, Children of Eden and for their contributions as critics. The 2017 CAPPIES Nominees and Commendees reception was hosted by St. Margaret’s last week, welcoming hundreds from 31 schools across Orange County to campus.
