Chicago's BWWers Predict '09/'10 Non-Eq Jeff Awards
Tonys Schmonies!
Who needs a Tony pool when the Jeff Awards happen right here in our backyard? Well, I do, but celebrating Chicago's best in non-Equity theatre is fun too! Chicago's 37th annual Non-Equity Joseph Jefferson Awards will be presented on Monday, June 7, 2010 at Park West (tickets are $35 in advance, $40 at the door if you'd like to attend), so Paul, Trish, and I thought we'd toss in another 2 cents on who we think's going to take home 2009-2010's top theatre honors.Between the Tonys and the Jeffs, which of the three of us will have the clearest crystal ball?Tell us what you think: we'd love to hear your predictions as well. Agree? Disagree? Wanna discuss it over a cocktail at Sidetrack? We're always game!PRODUCTION - PLAYPanek: The Pillowman, Thompson: Killer Joe, Vignola: St. Crispin's Day
