Nick Jonas, who currently stars in the Broadway production of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying will serve as master of ceremonies for the Shubert Foundation/MTI Broadway JR. Student Celebration, to be held at the Shubert Theater on May 29 at 10:30am.

The event will feature hundreds of students from middle and intermediate New York City Public Schools in Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens and Manhattan, who will make their Broadway debut as the culminating event of the 7th annual Shubert Foundation/MTI Broadway JR.

The students will perform a song from their school’s production of a student version of a Broadway musical, including Annie JR., Once on this Island JR., Disney’s Aladdin JR., Guys and Dolls JR., Bugsy Malone JR., Meredith Willson’s The Music Man JR., Dear Edwina JR., Fame JR., Roald Dahl’s Willy Wonka JR., and Thoroughly Modern Millie JR.
