With awards in a variety of categories that will be put together with little to no nepotism in mind, and that are certain to promote goodwill, fame, and, above all, reinforce the myth that we live in a pure meritocracy, the night is already a huge success in the minds of the organizers. Tune in to see who wins the coveted Tony Award for Best Person Called Tony, or Best Dramatic Performance by a Kitchen Appliance, and, of course, stick around to find out who the nominees are for the award for Best Nominee. Featuring musical acts, guest presenters, and the best of literally everything that has happened in online theatre (and definitely not just what PTC and a few friends did), the evening will make the Drama Desk Awards look like a high school prize giving. All funds raised via tickets and donations throughout the evening will go towards funding the company's 2021 digital season. Join Permafrost Theatre Collective for the greatest awards show that there has ever been until we do it again next year and then that one will be the best. click here

STARDUST: A New Operatic Music Video - Brooklyn-based composer Felix Jarrar and London-based writer B.L. Foxley join forces to create a new kind of musical storytelling. Stardust explores the labyrinth of personal and racial identity, the perils of self-criticism, and the power of self-actualization in a dynamic, multi-layered music video production inspired by the worlds of Greek mythology, contemporary art, and fantasy. Each performance is followed by a live post-show discussion featuring a Special Guest Moderator of color in conversation with members of the creative team. 10% of ticket sales will be donated to racial justice organizations and LGBTQUIA+ youth organizations. click here
