SCPA Star Student Heads for New York


Chauncey Matthews (in photo with The Old Globe CEO/Executive Producer Louis Spisto), from San Diego School for the Creative and Performing Arts (SCPA), is one of two San Diego County students selected to receive Globe Honors by the Old Globe Theatre.

The program for high school students rewards excellence in theatre performance. Students from more than 30 schools competed for the honor to represent San Diego in New York City for the National High School Musical Theatre Awards, June 25-29.

Chauncey, who played the “King” in The King and I at SCPA, will travel on an all expenses paid trip to New York City for the national competition.
