Yes!!! So happy for them! This was easily one of my favorite plays last year. And how great for everyone that there’s already a return engagement set for this summer!
And congrats to Dance Nation and Constitution as well. How great to see 3 extraordinary, risky, and unusual plays getting recognition.

FAIRVIEW, by Jackie Sibblies Drury
A hard-hitting drama that examines race in a highly conceptual, layered structure, ultimately bringing audiences into the actors’ community to face deep-seated prejudices.

A stunning final three. I might have swapped Constitution for Fairview for the ultimate win, but they're probably the two plays of last year that have stayed with me the most, so I'm delighted with the wins!

Citations for the finalists:
DANCE NATION, by Clare Barron
A refreshingly unorthodox play that conveys the joy and abandon of dancing, while addressing the changes to body and mind of its preteen characters as they peer over the precipice toward adulthood.

WHAT THE CONSTITUTION MEANS TO ME, by Heidi Schreck
A charming and incisive analysis of gender and racial biases inherent to the U.S. Constitution that examines how this living document could evolve to fit modern America.
