10 Signs You're Dating a Theatre Person16-8-13
It's tough being a theatre person. It's equally difficult dating one. Here's a list dedicated to the ones that date us and put up with our crap.
Nominees-Best Designer15-8-13
Designers are an integral part of the theatrical experience that often go under appreciated. We wanted to give special props to them by having a design category. *duh dum cha* Of course, the design world is very diverse and we would have loved to have different categories for the different kinds of design but it just wasn't possible.
Nominees-Best New Comer14-8-13
This is one of our favorite categories. It celebrates all the new people and new things in Hong Kong's art scene. We've had a really exciting past year and we think our nominees for Best New Comer reflects that.
Nominees-Best Supporting Actress13-8-13
A great character actress can be a lynch pin for a production. What would Romeo and Juliet be without the Nurse character? And Ado Annie is a much more fun role to play in Oklahoma than the lead, Laurey. Being a great supporting lady takes just as much work as a leading role. Whether they're the bff, the villain or the other woman they're essential to the story. Just one week left to vote!
Nominees-Best Supporting Actor12-8-13
There are no small parts. Just small actors.
Nominees-Best Actress10-8-13
There's always tougher competition between the ladies in HK. There's more of us. It seems like there are less roles to go around and all the ladies in town are super talented. The ladies in this category are the cream of the crop; the best of the best.
10 Common #theatreproblems8-8-13
#theatreproblems is a popular hashtag on twitter and tumblr. We'd be a fool not to make a visual list about it. Please enjoy! If you're a big fan of these lists we recommend you check out our tumblr for daily gifs dedicated to theatre!
Nominees-Best Actor7-8-13
An excellent leading man can make or break a show. He's gotta have charisma, he's gotta have class, he's gotta have something that make the men wanna be him and the ladies wanna be with him. All the men in this category are nominated for great performances that are very different. We did our best to find great photos of them in action. Feel free to print them out and hang them up on your wall Tiger Beat style!
Nominees-Best Original Work6-8-13
All of the shows nominated in this category are nominated for creating brand new shows from the ground up. Making a world premiere is no easy task and new work should be celebrated. They're a little bit harder to sell, they're a little bit harder to rehearse but it's very rewarding to know you're the first one to do this production. Congrats to all artists involved with these productions; we know they must have been a challenge!
Nominees-Best Charity Show3-8-13
Artists who do shows and give the proceeds to charity are awesome in my book. It takes a lot of dedication to work on a show for months and then give all the money to someone else for the greater good. The following shows were all good to start with and made even better by the fact that they tried to make our world a better place.
