AND
OUTSTANDING PLAY, Small Theatre
(Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?)
After five seasons of hard work, we share these awards with all our actors and production teams
from every show because without them we would not have been standing on that magnificent stage!
We laughed, we cried, we danced and we celebrated being a part of this beautiful Boston Theatre scene.
The opportunity for a small theater company such as ourselves to be recognized
and have an artistic voice is a testament to the amazing Boston theater scene and the hard work the
Boston Theater Critics Association puts in season after season.
