It's that time again!
The annual Buddy Awards, a free event hosted by OCTA's Board of Directors, is our chance to say “thank you” to the many actors, crews, designers, volunteers, ushers, patrons, and season ticket holders who have been an integral part of our season’s success.
These awards recognize outstanding achievement across the season’s five shows, recognizing actors, production staff, and special contributors.
Award winners are determined by votes cast throughout the season from season ticket holders, special judges, and the Board of Directors.
This year's theme is "Slumber Party Saturday"! We're ordering the pizza, popping the popcorn, putting out the board games, and getting the rec room ready, so put on your pajamas and join us for an evening of snacks, drinks, friends, fun, and awards!
(It's not really a slumber party. The place is haunted for crying out loud!)
The Buddy Awards will take place Saturday, June 27th.
A snacks and drinks reception starts at 6:30 and the awards show begins at 7:30.
If you were a part of a 2025-2026 production or a season ticket holder, please take a moment to let us know if you can attend by emailing [email protected].
We can't wait to celebrate with you!
