EMAV presents the 6th Annual Las Vegas Valley Theatre Awards: And the nominees are...

Almost 50 productions entered the #VegasValleys in the 2018-2019 season. Who will win?

There is a lot to celebrate about the 2018/2019 Las Vegas Theatre Season, and it's almost time to come together and do just that! Jacob Coakley founded the Las Vegas Valley Theatre Awards program in 2013, in order to help the community identify and promote the best of locally-produced Las Vegas theatre. The Valley Awards were acquired by EatMoreArtVegas.com in 2017, and with thanks to the over 40 year-round volunteer judges from the community, we are pleased to announce the nominees!

The Valley Theatre Awards show honoring 22 categories of achievement will take place Monday, July 15th at Starbright Theatre in Sun City Summerlin, and is open to the public.
