September 1 to August 31
StageSceneLA is pleased to announce its 3rd Annual Best Of The Year lists!
Previous yearly lists were compiled from those productions which I attended as an Ovation Awards voter. Though StageSceneLA’s Fall through Summer “season” remains the same, beginning with this year’s list, eligible productions are those reviewed on StageSceneLA.*
For those who wonder why there are so many names on these lists, the reasons are several.
1) This year, I reviewed 249 productions on StageSceneLA, considerably more than I saw as an Ovation voter, 200 in 2006-7 and a mere 176 in 2005-6.
2) Of those 249 productions, 169 received a WOW!
3) Los Angeles area theater is blessed with an abundance of talent.
From the approximately 40 invitations to review which are received monthly, StageSceneLA does its best to select the “best of the bunch,” a choice based on the theater company, cast, playwright, director, and design team involved in each production, and the availability of review dates. Some productions disappoint, to be sure, but for the most part, what is reviewed on StageSceneLA represents the best Los Angeles area theater has to offer.*
249 productions may seem to be a considerable number, but it represents just a fraction of the productions staged in Los Angeles and surrounding areas in the course of a year. To the talented artists whose work was not reviewed on StageSceneLA, our apologies and best wishes for your artistic and popular success.
A sincere and heartfelt thanks to the publicists whose generosity, helpfulness, and patience has made the first year of StageSceneLA such a rewarding one.
