The New York Innovative Theatre Awards Nomination Ceremony was a terrific celebration of the 2008-2009 indie theatre season. Jason Bowcutt, Shay Gines, Nick Micozzi and everyone at NYITA have created a very special event; seeing so many of my favorite artists (and let’s admit it friends) in the same room was inspiring.

I am particularly proud of
Universal Robots, a play I produced at Manhattan Theatre Source earlier this year. I believe so profoundly in this play and creative team involved with it — Mac Rogers, Rosemary Andress, Sandy Yaklin, Raul Abrego, Ashley Pridmore, Nicky Smith, Stephanie Orr, Kia Rogers, Ien DeNio, Dana Rossi, Ian Wehrle, Pete Boisvert, Tammy Oler, Ehren Gresehover, Esther Barlow, Jason Howard, David Lamberton, David Ian Lee, Michelle O’Connor, Ridley Parson, Nancy Sirianni, Tarantino Smith, Ben Sulzbach & Jennifer Gordon Thomas. Congrats to the Robots for the four nominations it received: Outstanding Full-Length Script (Mac Rogers), Outstanding Production of a Play, Outstanding Ensemble, and Outstanding Lead Actor (Jason Howard).
Kudos also to Kate Middleton and Elyse Mirto, who were nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress; Nat Cassidy, who received nominations for Outstanding Full-Length Script (The Reckoning of Kit & Little Boots) and Outstanding Director (Any Day Now); David Ian Lee for Outstanding Lead Actor (The Reckoning of Kit & Little Boots); The Most Damaging Wound, which received two nominations; and The Gallery Players, which has two musicals vying for Outstanding Musical.
To see a full list of nominees, visit New York Innovative Theatre Awards. The awards ceremony will be held September 21st. I look forward to another great night.
