We are proud to congratulate LACHSA’s soon-to-be senior Akira Sky ’20 who is a Regional Winner of the 2019 National Endowment for the Arts’ Musical Theater Songwriting Challenge! To see Akira introducing herself and her work, watch the NEA video here:

Next, Akira will be paired with a musical theater mentor and music director to form a coaching team that will work directly with her to hone all parts of her song. The team will meet with Akira both virtually and when the mentor and music director travel to Los Angeles for a three-day onsite workshop.
