Provision Theater Gets Another Jeff Nomination! August 26, 2008

Posted by Steve in : Weblog , trackback

As we get ready head to the fall and the cooling temperatures, it is awards time in the Chicago theater community and the Jeff Awards committee has made their selections for the 2007-2008 Equity Awards.  Once again, Provision Theater Company has garnered a nomination.

This year, Brad Armacost was nominated for best solo performance in C.S. Lewis on Stage, performed at the Royal George Theater.

This one-man show captured the personality and writing of the author of THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA and SCREWTAPE LETTERS so well as Brad gave us an intimate look at the Oxford man who could make his audience think as deeply as he made them laugh.  Congrats to Brad!

This represents the 6th nomination (7th total) for this highly-regarded Chicago theater company in its short four year history.

Provision Theater Company burst onto the Chicago theater scene in March 2004 with the opening of Harry Chapin’s off-Broadway smash hit Cotton Patch Gospel, which played to packed houses and unanimous critical praise from numerous publications, including: Chicago Tribune, Chicago Sun-Times, Chicago Reader and more. The production was also nominated for a Joseph Jefferson Award.  Provision Theater Company followed that with two more Joseph Jefferson Award nominations for their critically-acclaimed production of A Christmas Carol. Other highly praised and Joseph Jefferson nominated productions include: The Boys Next Door, The Spitfire Grill, The Gospel of John and Beast on the Moon.
