New York, NY – On Monday, October 25, 2021, the Stage Managers’ Association presented its annual Del Hughes Awards for Lifetime Achievement in the Art of Stage Management in a hybrid ceremony, live from NYC and Las Vegas, and Virtually Everywhere. Here is a slideshow photo gallery from the evening’s event.
The SMA presented the awards to distinguished theatrical stage managers Ruth E. Kramer and Lynda A. Lavin, television stage manager Arthur E. Lewis, and posthumously legendary Broadway stage manager Charles Allen Blackwell. In addition to these Lifetime Achievement Awards, the SMA honored the 101 Black Stage Managers celebration, curated by R. Christopher Maxwell, with a Special Recognition Award.
Honorees are chosen each February from nominations submitted by industry members. The SMA thanks Broadway Cares/Equity Fights Aids for their leading sponsorship of the event.
