Awards
It’s an honour just to be nominated.
Theatre Network is incredibly proud of the work of all of our artists. Here are some highlights of locally and nationally recognized work from over the years.
The Governor General’s Awards
Theatre Network is proud to have produced the first production of some plays that have been nominated for the Governor General’s Awards.
Two productions during our 1985/86 season were nominated for Canada’s Governor General’s Award for Drama, Odd Jobs by Frank Moher (a co-production with Catalyst Theatre) and Walt and Roy by Michael McKinlay, directed by Stephen Heatley.
More recent Governor General Award nominations include The Gravitational Pull of Bernice Trimble by Beth Graham (2014/15 Season) and Pig Girl by Colleen Murphy (2013/14 Season). In 2016 Colleen Murphy was awarded the Governor General’s Literary Award in the Drama category for Pig Girl.
The Sterling Awards
The Sterling Awards The Elizabeth Sterling Haynes Awards were created in 1987/88 to celebrate excellence in the theatre arts. Truly, for us folks in Edmonton, the Sterling’s are big bash and a fun party to celebrate all of the good work created by our community each season.
