2022 Great Hall Awards

Celebrating the Best in Local Theatre

The following results were totaled from 90 audience ballots from the community (not by judges or panels). Participating production companies include Great Hall Theatrical Experiences, Cobb&Co Theater Productions, and Headphone Theater. If you’d like your production(s) to be included on the ballots for 2023, email greathalltheatrical@gmail.com.

Take these with a grain of salt, as the first half of the year won nothing, and the second half of the year won everything. Clearly, we need to record ballots when shows are fresher in audience's minds, which is the plan for 2023.
