About the Senior Division AMP Awards

The Senior Division AMP Awards offers a separate and exclusive “Senior Division” Awards Ceremony in a cross-NTPA event. The event will honor students who just completed 10th grade or higher and participated in an NTPA major production that opened between April 1, 2022 and March 31, 2023. This exciting event unites the Senior Division from across the entire NTPA family of theatres and is the exclusive event for Senior Division AMP recognition!

The Red Carpet Reception opens at 4:30 PM and Seniors can party all night!
