Looking for Roberto Clemente Scores “Audience Choice Award!”

Imagination Stage’s spring ’08 musical hit Looking for Roberto Clemente was voted "Favorite Family Production" by the readers of DCTheatreScene.com. It’s great to have our tremendous artistic and production staff’s hard work be acknowledged and appreciated! Besides Clemente, three other Imagination Stage shows were nominated for this honor—that’s twice as many nominations as any other children’s theatre. The other Imagination Stage nominees were: The Neverending Story, Twice Upon a Time: Dr. Seuss’ the Lorax and The Emperor’s New Clothes and The Araboolies of Liberty Street. It’s worth noting that three out of those four shows were World Premiere productions of scripts that were commissioned and developed at Imagination Stage by Artistic Director Janet Stanford and Associate Artistic Director Kate Bryer. Quick props to the talented artists behind Clemente: Karen Zacarias, Deborah Wicks La Puma, Kate Bryer, Krissie Marty, Dan Villar, Elizabeth Jenkins McFadden, Harold Burgess, Yvette Ryan, Kristen Bishel. Ditto to the awesome cast: Zack Colonna, JP Illaramendi, Derek Manson, Don Mason, Erika Rose, Matthew Schleigh and Chris Wilson.
