Jenny Weisz Hosts First Outing

There’s always bound to be some head scratching or indignation at shows like these, especially when your favourites weren’t even nominated. The selection process itself could use some refining in future years—presently it’s a combination of staff picks and popular vote through comment boxes. But this didn’t detract from a successful evening. I look forward to attending more great MyTheatre parties in the years to come!
