Hello, fellow theater lovers, My name is Neda Spears and I am reaching out to my fellow patrons to inquire of any and all individuals who would be interested in establishing an awards committee that would then lead to an awards ceremony akin to the Jeff Awards in Chicago or the Barrymore Awards in Philadelphia. The committee would be tasked with attending a certain amount of productions throughout the season and offer recommendations, then nominate performers and productions to be recognized at the ceremony. I am looking to meet with at least 10 people from different walks of life who can offer a unique perspective on watching theater as well as those who wish to offer financial support to the members and as well as the process of procuring a venue for the awards ceremony. Any and all are welcome to contact me at nedaspears@outlook.com. Serious inquiries only. This is not meant to exclude anyone, but to offer the Cleveland area a better appreciation of all the great theater we have in the region and even perhaps introduce new patrons to the arts. Thnaks! Neda Spears (local actor)
