Next On Stage

After two successful seasons of our virtual singing competition, we're back again by popular demand with the third season of our online musical theatre singing competition for student performers sponsored by The International College of Musical Theatre.

Andrew Nelin and Nick Cortazzo, students at Baldwin Wallace University, competed in season 2 of Next on Stage last fall. Together, they've recorded a mashup of Get Happy, made famous by Judy Garland, and Happy Days Are Here Again, made popular by Barbra Streisand.

Get to know the judges for the high school and college categories on season 3 of Next on Stage, back again by popular demand!

BroadwayWorld is thrilled to announce that Next on Stage is BACK for season 3! Inspired by your favorite network TV singing contests, the site is inviting high school and college aged students to submit videos of themselves performing a song from the musical theatre canon to enter the competition.

Hannah Tramonte, a finalist in our first season of Next on Stage, recently went on to win the 'Holiday Heart Song' Competition presented by Stage Door Studios.
