| In 2003, Jennifer Nelson,
President of the League of Washington Theatres, initiated these awards to
recognize exemplary contributions made by theatre staff members or
volunteers. The League is the association of non-profit professional
theaters in the Washington, DC area. With over fifty theaters, venues and
theater organizations as members, the League spans the community from as far
north as Columbia in Maryland to as far south as Fairfax in Virginia. Each
member theater company is asked to nominate a recipient and the awards are
presented at a ceremony. As the award has grown in coverage and acceptance,
more and more member companies from the league have selected individuals for
recognition. The 2005 awards had recipients designated by over twenty member
companies, plus the Helen Hayes Awards organization used the event to confer
some recognition on its publications manager. This year the ceremony will be
held on May 1 from 5 to 8 pm at the new Busboys & Poets bistro and bookstore
that caters to the theater crowd.
