Organization Details

Celebrating Off-Off Broadway The New York Innovative Theatre Awards (the IT Awards) are given annually to honor individuals and organizations who have achieved artistic excellence in the Off-Off-Broadway theatre. The New York IT Awards organization recognizes the unique and essential role Off-Off-Broadway plays in contributing to American and global culture. We believe that publicly recognizing excellence in Off-Off-Broadway will expand audience awareness and appreciation of the full New York theatre experience.

The IT Awards is a not-for-profit arts organization supporting the Off-Off-Broadway community by: Celebrating and Recognizing extraordinary Off-Off-Broadway Theatre Strengthening the community and collective identity of Off-Off-Broadway Honoring our artistic heritage Advancing public interest in and understanding of the theatrical arts The IT Awards' process involves all levels of the New York theatre community.
