2012 LA Ovation Awards Announced - THE COLOR PURPLE, Center Theatre Group and Tom Buderwitz Get Most Nominations

Nominees for the 2012 LA Stage Alliance Ovation Awards were announced Tuesday evening at the Renberg Theatre inside the Gay and Lesbian Center in Los Angeles. The 2012 Ovation Awards ceremony will take place on Monday, November 12, at the historic Los Angeles Theatre, 615 South Broadway, in downtown Los Angeles at 7:30 pm. For more information, visit www.LASTAGEOvations.com.

Center Theatre Group, The Color Purple and Tom Buderwitz won the most 2012 Ovation nominations for a group, a single show and an individual, respectively.

Among groups, Center Theatre Group’s cluster of 29 nominations was far in front of the pack. It was followed by the nods for Celebration Theatre and Musical Theatre West (16 each), Geffen Playhouse (11), and Colony Theatre Company and Troubadour Theater Company (9 each).

Celebration’s revival of The Color Purple musical won 13 nominations, more than any other show. The runners-up were The Convert (11), Forbidden Broadway: Greatest Hits, Volume 2 (9), and Good People, Hey, Morgan! and CTG’s revival of Waiting for Godot — each of which received 8.
