Two Special Event Categories Added to 2016 BWW Cabaret Awards; Voting Ends 12/31!

Due to popular demand, BroadwayWorld Cabaret is adding two new categories to the 2016 BWW Cabaret Awards to celebrate those special shows that ran only once or twice in this season's eligibility period between November 1, 2015 through October 31, 2016.

Special Event - Solo (for solo performers) and Special Event - Multiple (for duos and group variety shows) have been added to the mix this year in addition to the 14 main categories with voting already in progress. Nominations were both reader-submitted and proofed for eligibility by BWW Cabaret staff.

Voting for all categories will run through December 31, 2016. Additionally, five Editor's Choice Awards recipients, including Cabaret Personality of the Year, will be announced after voting has completed. Following a review of the ballots, winners will be announced officially in early January 2017!
