Wine, hors d’oeuvres and Suzi
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Nominations for Atlanta’s Suzi Bass Awards, the city’s only professional theater honors, will be announced Monday night at the New American Shakespeare Tavern.
The awards for the 2006-2007 Atlanta season will be handed out Nov. 5, and Suzi organizers are hinting that after two years at the 14th Street Playhouse, Atlanta’s Tonys will move to the Fox Theatre.
The venue will be announced Monday at the Tavern — as well as the winner of this year’s Spirit of Suzi Bass Award, given in honor of the beloved Atlanta actress who died of melanoma in 2002 at age 55. (Previous winners of the Spirit of Suzi Bass Award include True Colors Theatre founder Kenny Leon and Atlanta actress and Actors’ Equity liaison Karen Howell.)
Monday’s free festivities begin at 5:30. There’ll be a raffle for two airline tickets good for travel to any Delta destination in the world. (Tickets are $20 and may be purchased online at suziawards.org.) The Suzi-hounds promise wine and munchies — along with nominations for the Suzi Awards’ 20 categories.
The Tavern is at 499 Peachtree St. N.E., across from Crawford Long Hospital in Midtown. For more information: www.suziawards.org
