Nominations for NYC’s 67th Annual Drama Desk Awards

DC Theater Arts: Nominations for the 2022-23 Drama Desk Awards – the only major NYC theater awards for which productions on Broadway, Off Broadway, and Off-Off Broadway compete in the same categories – were announced today at noon. Founded in 1949, the critics organization began presenting its awards in 1955, and, as they did for the first nineteen years, they will have gender-free performance categories this year, each with twice as many nominees as the former gendered categories.

I personally love Award show season. So I was really excited when the Drama Desk nominations came out because that means it's the start of awards season. I haven't got to see any of the shows this season. I personally am hoping to see Some Like It Hot, New York New York, Life of Pi, and Shucked. I like when new shows come to Broadway because it gives a chance for new stories to be told and new audiences to see them. I also really love how the drama desk includes off broadway shows as well as broadway shows. This gives a chance for people to have the opportunity to hear about more shows on and off broadway. The one show I am probably the most excited to see is New York New York, the costume designer is the same costume designer as Marvelous Mrs. Maisal. Her costume design was one of the things New York New York was nominated for.
