The Tony Randall Theatrical Fund has announced recipients of Tony Randall Grants for the 2011-2012 season, which total over $185,000. The awards are administered by Heather Randall, the widow of legendary actor Tony Randall.
Elevator Repair Service, The Civilians, SITI Company, Rattlestick Playwrights Theater, and Soho Rep are being recognized “for consistently producing innovative, artist-driven work for the next generation of theater-goers.”
Epic Theatre Ensemble is awarded for “the ambitious, high quality arts education they provide to 2,000 NYC public school students each year.” Lark Play Development Company is receiving a grant “for maintaining a nurturing, incubative atmosphere where playwrights can develop their work away from critical and commercial pressures.”
Grants were also awarded to Classic Stage Company, Repertorio Espanol and Signature Theatre Company “in recognition of their continued artistic achievement and organizational excellence.”
In addition, The Acting Company, The Actors Fund, Brooklyn Academy of Music, New York Theatre Workshop and Target Margin Theatre will continue to receive The Tony Randall Theatrical Fund’s ongoing support.
