For Martha Clarke's upcoming production of Pirandello Project, the inaugural Tony Randall Grant was presented to the New York Theatre Workshop on June 21st at Sardi's.

The award for $100,000 is given to a "New York-area nonprofit theatre company for the production of a classic play, an adaptation of a classic or a work inspired by the classics." It is named after the late actor who appeared in films such as Pillow Talk, in plays such as Inherit the Wind and who founded the National Actors' Theatre.

"New York Theatre Workshop is just that... a remarkable off-Broadway theatre noted for its acclaimed and innovative productions... a workshop where artists create new work, hone their craft and collaboratively explore theatre... all rooted in our cozy East Village digs located in the heart of New York's downtown arts scene," states the organization's website. They have developed plays and musicals such as Rent and Homebody/Kabul.
