So, after the enormous success of COMPANY, do you think Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park has the opportunity to win another Tony for best regional theater?

Posted: 3/24/06 at 12:16pmNo, the Tony committee doesn't look at this as a competitve award and compare the seasons of one regional house to another to decide who gets it. It's more a sort of lifetime achievement award for regional theatre and it's a way for the Tonys to honor (and help out financially) the dozens of noteworthy regional theatres around the country that have long distinguished histories, one theatre at a time. Once you get yours, I'm pretty sure that's it (though once they've honored all the LORT houses out there a few decades from now, they might start over and give the award to places it has honored in the past).
