The IT Awards were organized to bring recognition to the great work being done in Off-Off-Broadway and help create a community base for the estimated 40,000 artists working in the Off-Off-Broadway venue.
Description:
Celebrating Off-Off Broadway
The New York Innovative Theatre Awards (the IT Awards) are given annually to honor individuals and organizations who have achieved artistic excellence in the Off-Off-Broadway theatre. The New York IT Awards organization recognizes the unique and essential role Off-Off-Broadway plays in contributing to American and global culture. We believe that publicly recognizing excellence in Off-Off-Broadway will expand audience awareness and appreciation of the full New York theatre experience.
The IT Awards is a not-for-profit arts organization supporting the Off-Off-Broadway community by:
Celebrating and Recognizing extraordinary Off-Off-Broadway Theatre
Strengthening the community and collective identity of Off-Off-Broadway
Honoring our artistic heritage
Advancing public interest in and understanding of the theatrical arts
The IT Awards' process involves all levels of the New York theatre community.
Off-Off Broadway Community :: We recognize some of the best work being done by the estimated 40,000 artists working in Off-Off-Broadway each year.
Audience Participation :: Audience members have a voice, too. They can log on and offer their scores for theatre they see.
Judging Pool :: Artists from all levels of Off-Off-Broadway theatre, as well as professionals from the New York theatre and entertainment community at large, evaluate productions through out the season.
Awards Committee :: Artistic directors and theatre professionals determine the recipients of the honorary IT awards.
Volunteers :: Members of our community, along with business professionals who give their time and resources to support the New York Innovative Theatre Awards.
At the end of the theatre season, a high-profile awards ceremony celebrates this entire community while honoring some of the most extraordinary work of the year.
