Isle of Wight Theatre Awards Return With Glitzy Celebration Event

The first IW Amateur Theatre Awards Evening will be held at Northwood House on 14th March 2025, celebrating the thriving Island theatre community.

Judges have attended more than 40 plays, musicals and pantomimes during 2024 and we are inviting theatre groups and nominated actors to come along to hear the results of their deliberations.

During the initial season in 2022-3, awards were announced online and certificates sent – this year a full Awards Evening will take place.

Priority tickets went on sale to nominees this week and organisers said the uptake has been excellent so far.

This year, there's been an expansion to the number of categories of awards, and we envisage developing the process further next year.

As well as best shows and actors, there are awards for best technical design: costumes: music and singing: choreography, and direction as well as the John Hannam Award, a tribute to the originator of the Isle of Wight Theatre Awards.

Nominations have been published: a full list can be seen on the IW Theatre website.
