The ariZoni Theatre Awards of Excellence
About Us
The
ariZoni Theatre Awards is a not-for-profit organization devoted to
promoting the visibility and growth of theatre in the Valley of the Sun
& Maricopa County. Each year at its annual awards ceremony, the
Board bestows an outstanding contribution award and a distinguished
service award to deserving individuals or organizations for their
contributions to theatre. In addition, the ariZoni Scholarship
Committee will award one or more scholarships to selected, qualified
students.
Most
importantly, after completion of an exhaustive judging process,
(involving close to 100 Adjudicators) awards of excellence are
presented to those individuals who have excelled in performance and
production during the just-completed season.
These awards represent true celebrations of EXCELLENCE IN THEATRE.
