Hi All,

Lurker here but happy to read everyone’s informative reviews.

I see people are beginning to make Tony predictions, which is always interesting, but does anyone know if the Drama Desks are happening this year?  The website is down and there is no info on it anywhere that I can find. I look forward to them because they celebrate off-bway theatre also and they are much less predictable than the Tonys.

If they are happening, does anyone have any thoughts on who might win?  Kimberly Akimbo would be out of consideration for those awards, so the results will change considerably. Also, I was thinking A Christmas Carol might be eligible for Best Adaptation and perhaps Life of Pi would be an obvious choice for Puppetry.

Thanks!

I'm a member of the Drama Desk. The awards are definitely happening as usual, and the website appears fine to me:

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body

The website is fine, but not a single piece of info about the 2023 ceremony

That’s great. I must have been clicking on a dead link. I’m glad the ceremony is still on.  Please encourage the group to let us know when things are happening.

thank you!

Any update on Drama Desk details? Feels strange we're about two weeks out from awards season starting and there hasn't been a peep from the Drama Desks about nominations or dates or anything.
