JE student nominated for SALT Award

Jordan-Elbridge High School sophomore Kyra Dominick has been nominated for a Syracuse Area Live Theater (SALT) Award for best leading actress in a community musical.

She received the nomination for her performance in the title role of “Annie” with The Central New York Playhouse. She split the role and shares the nomination with a Vernon-Verona-Sherrill student.

Dominick says she loves acting and has been in about seven shows at JE. She recently performed in the Jordan-Elbridge Musical Players production of “The Hunchback of Notre Dame,” in October.

“It feels nice to get nominated,” she said. “I love being on stage and singing so that other people can enjoy it.”

The SALT Awards are in their 16th year and recognize the best performances in musicals and plays in the Syracuse area for the year. The awards show will be broadcasted virtually this year on at 6:30 p.m. on Dec. 5 on Facebook Live. For details go to: thesaltawards.com.
