We would like to let you all know that there will be a change to the process for inviting performances for 2020. Previously, those companies that are invited to perform are done so immediately following their show season concluding.

From now on, companies will be invited to be placed on a shortlist for performing at the awards ceremony. We will then endeavour to notify companies by October, to confirm those that will perform on the night.

We hope that this will allow us to select a good balance of companies performing, representational of the year of theatre across the state.
