Wanna be a Suzi judge?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
The Suzi Bass Awards, Atlanta’s professional theater honors, is looking for volunteer judges. You’ll need to be a theater professional to qualify. But if you get picked, you’ll get to see shows for free, and participate in the nominating process.
(If you don’t know about the Suzis, they are Atlanta’s answer to the Tonys, and as far as I’m concerned, the program is one of the best things to happen on the local theater scene in a long time.)
According to Suzi official Deadra Moore, applicants should have experience in the theater (as an artist, playwright, administrator or long-term audience member); a degree in theater or a related field; a positon as a theater educator, or some combination of the above.
No slackers allowed. It’s a yearlong commitment. Three years max. And you need to hurry. Judges are needed for the new term starting Aug. 1.
Nominations for this year’s Suzi Awards will be announced Sept. 10. The Suzis will be handed out Nov. 5.
Meanwhile, you can support the Suzis by buying a $20 raffle ticket to win two first-class Delta tickets for international travel. It’s a $6,000 value, and Suzi is ready when you are.
