Tooth of Time Award
The Tooth of Time Award
Honoring accomplished playwrights who have created significant, idea-driven works throughout their career…
The Tooth of Time for Distinguished Career award honors theatre artists who have had a substantial and important career of “idea-driven” works. We hope that the Tooth of Time will encourage theatre artists and audiences alike to engage with the titans of the art form in new ways and celebrate their contributions to the field. Often our culture celebrates the new and emerging artist and forgets to cultivate our most beloved writers who have accomplished the feat of duration and longevity. The Tooth of Time allows those who have devoted their lives to the theatre a respite to re-engage with their work and create something new.
