Urinetown: Winners
Written by Jeremy Zafran on 1 February 2023
The Winners were Announced for the “2022 BroadwayWorld Montreal Awards” and Urinetown: The Musical, cleaned-up capturing 11 awards including: Best Musical; Best Performer in a Musical by Iakotonhnhetsheraka:ion Scout Marquis; and Best Direction of a musical by Kirk Elsmore and Kyle Zachary. Zachary was genuinely excited:
“It’s really awesome, BroadwayWorld is a big website, they have regional awards in just about every city around the world, so to be recognized it’s a big deal for us especially coming off a long hiatus like the Turtle Island Theatre had.”
Zachary says they are already thinking about the next performance and the future looks bright:
“We’re meeting as a production team, we don’t have anything set in stone yet, but we have a few titles that we’re kicking around. We want to make sure we have enough for all of our new members, new members that will be coming after hearing this news: everybody loves a winner, right? I’m expecting we’ll have more members this coming summer and with Turtle Island theatre starting production again with an afterschool program, this is our 1st steps in rebuilding the theatre community in Kahnàwake.”
Starcatcher Productions/ Turtle Island Theatre was also voted best theatre.
