The Rye Neck senior won the 2017 Metro Award for Best Comedic Actor for his performance as Kyle O’Boyle in the high school production of “Legally Blonde.” He received his award during the annual ceremony, which was held at Purchase College Community Arts Center on June 12.

"He has a wonderful sense of comedy and a perfect deadpan expression that made him ideal to play the role of the unwittingly handsome UPS delivery man," theater director Scott Harris said. "Although his time on stage was short, Isaak made the most of the part, keeping a straight face while the characters around him – not to mention his own jazz horns and theme music – helped inform the audience of just how funny his strut and delivery were."
