Tuesday, August 21, 2012-Chicago, IL. The Jeff Awards Committee today announced 197 nominations in 34 categories for Chicago Equity theatrical productions, which opened between August 1, 2011, and July 31, 2012. The Jeff Awards judges attended opening nights of 118 Equity productions offered by 55 producing organizations. From these openings, 96 productions were "Jeff Recommended," which made them eligible for award nominations.
The 44th Annual Jeff Awards ceremony honoring excellence in professional theatre produced within the immediate Chicago area will be held on Monday, October 15, at Drury Lane Oakbrook, 100 Drury Lane, Oakbrook Terrace. Pre-show appetizers and cash bar will run from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., and the Awards Ceremony, directed by Michael Weber, will begin at 7:30 p.m., with a buffet and reception immediately following. Musical numbers featuring cast members from nominated musicals and video segments from nominated plays will highlight the Jeff Awards ceremony. Advance purchase tickets, which include the ceremony and buffets, are $75 ($55 for members of Actors' Equity Association, United Scenic Artists, Stage Directors and Choreographers Society, Stage Managers' Association, The Dramatists Guild of America, and American Federation of Musicians). The evening is black tie optional and the public is cordially invited to attend. To purchase tickets, visit the Jeff Awards website at www.jeffawards.org . For more information, contact Equity Chair Merril Prager at equitywing@jeffawards.org .
Chicago Shakespeare Theater had 18 nominations, including seven for their reinvention of Stephen Sondheim's "Follies" with nods for Production — Musical — Large, Director Gary Griffin and Music Director Brad Haak, and five nods for Shakespeare's "Elizabeth Rex" including Production — Play — Large. Goodman Theatre also had 18 nominations, six for their enormous mounting of Eugene O'Neill's "The Iceman Cometh," including Production — Play — Large and Ensemble, four for their presentation of Teatro Vista's production of Candido Tirado's "Fish Men," including Production — Play — Midsize, and three for Danai Gurira's "The Convert," produced in association with Center Theatre Group and McCarter Theatre Center. With 17 nominations, Drury Lane Productions led the list of musical houses with six for "Hairspray," including Production — Musical — Large and Director — Musical and Choreography nods for Tammy Mader, five each for "The Sound of Music" and "Sweeney Todd," both receiving Production — Musical — Large nominations and for Directing by double nominee Rachel Rockwell. Most nominated individuals included scenic designers Jack Magaw and Todd Rosenthal, lighting designer Jesse Klug, and projections designer Mike Tutaj, each with three nods.
In the coveted Ensemble category, the Jeff Awards Committee nominated five productions: "Ameriville by Universes," presented by Victory Gardens Theater, "Clybourne Park" from Steppenwolf Theatre Company, Eugene O'Neill's "The Iceman Cometh" from Goodman Theatre, "Mr. Rickey Calls A Meeting" by Lookingglass Theatre Company, and "The Pitmen Painters" from TimeLine Theatre Company. Actors' Equity Association continues its support of the Equity Jeff Awards by sponsoring the Ensemble Award.
The strong Chicago tradition of supporting new works continued in 2011-2012 as five world premiere plays, two musicals, and five new adaptations received Jeff nominations. Chicago Dramatists' season included an impressive trio of nominated plays: "I Am Going to Change the World" by Andrew Hinderaker in which the well-planned corporate career disintegrates at the first interview, "Blizzard '67" by Jon Steinhagen where four carpooling Chicago businessmen struggle through a fateful 23-inch snow, and Sarah Gubbins' new play, co-produced with About Face Theatre, depicting two lesbian couples who respond quite differently to a pregnancy in "The Kid Thing." American Theater Company in special arrangement with The Araca Group presented Ayad Akhtar's "Disgraced," a stunning exploration of a young Muslim-American lawyer struggles to find his identity. TimeLine Theatre Company scored a nod with investigative journalist John Conroy's new play, "My Kind of Town," a story of one man's fight against a police torture scandal. The two new musicals receiving nominations are "Hero the Musical" by Aaron Thielen and Michael Mahler from Marriott Theatre and "Eastland: A New Musical" by Andrew White, Andre Pluess and Ben Sussman from Lookingglass Theatre Company. Three of the five nominated New Adaptations were reimagined plays — Tennessee Williams' "Camino Real" controversially adapted by Calixto Bieito and Marc Rosich at Goodman Theatre, Chekhov's "Three Sisters" updated by Tracy Letts at Steppenwolf Theatre, and "The Feast: an intimate Tempest," a miniature of Shakespeare's "The Tempest," redesigned by Jessica Thebus and Frank Maugeri for Chicago Shakespeare Theater in association with Redmoon — and two are adaptations of novels — E.L. Doctorow's "The March" crafted by Frank Galati for Steppenwolf Theatre Company and Ralph Ellison's "Invisible Man" adapted by Oren Jacoby for Court Theatre in association with Christopher McElroen Productions.
The Jeff Awards has been honoring outstanding theatre artists annually since it was established in 1968. With up to 52 members representing a wide variety of backgrounds in theatre, the Jeff Awards is committed to celebrating the vitality of Chicago area theatre by recognizing excellence through its recommendations, awards, and honors. The Jeff Awards fosters the artistic growth of area theatres and theatre artists and promotes educational opportunities, audience appreciation, and civic pride in the achievements of the theatre community. Each year the Jeff Awards evaluates over 250 theatrical productions and holds two awards ceremonies. Originally chartered to recognize only Equity productions, the Jeff Awards established the Non-Equity Wing in 1973 to celebrate outstanding achievement in non-union theatre. The next Non-Equity awards ceremony will be held on June 3, 2013, at the Park West.
