- Our Spirit and our Youth Awards.
This is really a special award for us.
This is a peer chosen.
Each of the schools could select someone from their school,
a student who is inspiring, hard working.
[cheers and applause]
So they were selected for this award by their peers,
which is really cool.
Not all of them are performers.
We have a stage manager in the group
over there in the corner.
[applause]
He got thrown into a role.
And we also have this year 11 youth performances,
and these are students who were not in high school yet,
but they're aspiring performers.
If you're a youth, raise your hand.
All right, there's some.
[cheers and applause] Come back here.
What role did you play? - Gavroche.
- Say again, what role did you play?
- Gavroche. - Gavroche.
Who else? Where's another youth performer?
- Right here.
- No, wait, wait, wait.
Was there one over here?
Oh, down here in the front.
Hang on, hang on, hang on.
What role did you play?
- Gavroche. [laughter]
- What role did you play?
- Gavroche. [laughter and clapping]
- What role did you play?
- Colin. [laughter]
- No, you didn't.
You're supposed to play Gavroche.
[laughter]
So, like, this is our youngest here.
[cheers and applause]
I know, right? [cheers and applause]
He's nine. [cheers and applause]
So, listen, [cheers and applause]
why do you like performing?
- It's just fun to perform, I guess. [laughs]
It's fun.
- It's just fun, it's fun? - Yeah.
- Well, listen, congratulations, young man!
Nine years old...
Our Spirit and our Youth performers!
Thank you, everybody. [cheers and applause]
