The Morrison Center wins 2018 BroadwayWorld Boise Regional Awards "Theater of the Year", "Best Touring Show: PHANTOM OF THE OPERA"

The BroadwayWorld Regional Awards is a contest sponsored by BroadwayHD, aiming to recognize the best venues, productions, touring shows, and acting in the area. This year the BroadwayWorld Regional Awards featured voting in over 100 cities across America, Canada, Central and South America, Europe, and Asia. Categories were set by local editors and reader-submitted nominees were voted on by local theater-goers. Regional productions, touring shows, and more were all included in the awards, honoring productions which opened between October 1, 2017 through September 30, 2018. Voting took place online at www.BroadwayWorld.com during the month of December 2018. Anyone with a valid email address was eligible to vote for their favorite nominees. A full list of the Boise Regional winners can be found on their winners webpage. The Morrison Center won awards for "Theater of the Year" and "Best Touring Show" with the production of PHANTOM OF THE OPERA presented by the Fred Meyer Broadway in Boise series.

Located on the campus of Boise State University, the 2,037-seat Velma V. Morrison Center for the Performing Arts is Idaho's premier performing arts center. Nestled on the banks of the Boise River, with a panoramic view of the city, parks and foothills, the Center's 10-story stage house is a recognizable fixture of the Capitol's picturesque skyline. The realization of a life-long dream of Harry W. Morrison, and championed by his widow, Velma, the Center opened its doors on April 7, 1984. Today the Center is recognized as a Cultural Ambassador for the City of Boise and a major destination for arts and culture, annually hosting hundreds of live entertainment and arts education offerings that serve to enrich the lives of patrons of all ages. As a Boise State affiliate, the Center is a non-profit organization supported by ticket sales, facility rentals, donations and the generous support of the Morrison Center Endowment Foundation, Inc.
