I don’t think I realized how young the Jimmy Awards are. I am older than the jimmys which is crazy to me, with how big and important they feel. Two students from the class of 2030 MT’s that came in with us were competitors in the Jimmy awards this year, and every post about the Jimmys gets tens of thousands of likes, massive traction, and the winners are thought to have an instant fast pass to broadway if they so desire it. How has this award show become so big, so important, such an institution, in such a short period of time? Part of it, i believe, is in the preselection. To even attend the jimmys you must already be the best in your state. Everyone at the jimmys is incredible, which I think makes it easy to root for people - there is no one to root against. Still It makes me wonder what else about this industry is newer than I thought.
