WLHS Earns Top Honors at the Jerry Awards
Wisconsin Lutheran High School’s production of Anastasia: The Musical received outstanding recognition at the 2026 Jerry Awards, presented by the Overture Center for the Arts. After earning nearly 20 nominations earlier this spring, WLHS was honored with the Jerry Award for Outstanding Musical—the highest honor awarded by the program and the first time WLHS has received the award since joining the Jerry Awards program in 2022.
In addition, Hannah Strong (‘26) earned the award for Outstanding Lead Performance for her role as Anya/Anastasia, and Anaya Britton (‘26) received the Spirit Award.
As a result of the Outstanding Musical honor, the cast will have the opportunity to perform a number from Anastasia at the Jerry Awards show on Sunday, June 7 at the Overture Center in Madison. Hannah and Anaya will also have the opportunity to perform as recipients in their respective categories.
Congratulations to our talented students, directors, pit orchestra, stage crew, and staff whose hard work, creativity, and dedication made this incredible achievement possible.
