THE DESK, DETROIT, 'BLACK VIRGINS' and More Among This Week's TBA Awards Recommended Productions

Each week, hundreds of adjudicators attend and evaluate eligible productions from all over the Bay Area on behalf of the TBA Awards. Based on the overall production scores from their peers, Theatre Bay Area issues a weekly list of productions still running that have reached the required threshold of positive scoring to earn "TBA Awards Recommended Production" status.

This week, five productions are recommended through the Theatre Bay Area awards process, which involves more than 250 industry volunteers attending shows and logging scores within 48 hours of viewing the performances.
