I don't know about you, but I'm still recovering from the Theatre League Holiday Party; it was a great turn out, and while I was far from the first to leave, a healthy contingent was holding out at the bar when I left. Mathew Korinko of Slow Burn Theatre Company, which won a Silver Palm for their breakout work this season, made a point of thanking me for being the first to announce their existence back in 2009. Well, thank you for producing excellent plays! Anyone can make the promise, but it takes dedication and hard work to deliver what you have. You earned that Silver Palm.
And in fact, everyone did. Someone pointed out that the nice thing about the Silver Palms is that it's not a competition; it's simply recognition. No one is competing, because the categories are created on an ad hoc basis that best fits what the party has accomplished. Maybe next year we'll see some stage managers getting some notice. Hint hint hint.
Anyway, it was a lovely time, your loss if you missed it, and my Remy Award is getting admiring glances from folks at the office.
