2024 Molly Awards at Avoca Beach Theatre
Options Theatre Company enjoyed a sparkling awards night.
Cast, Crew, Families, Staff and VIP Guests of Options Theatre Company attended the 2024 Molly Awards at Avoca Beach Theatre on Tuesday, 26 March, 2024.
Guests arrived in style walking the red carpet for a glittering evening to celebrate the performances of the Singers, Actors, Dancers and Writers who featured in our recent performances which included:
- If I Can Dream
- Hurricane
- US and THEM
The weather was kind and our guests enjoyed dressing up in their finest outfits, strolling along the red carpet and smiling for the cameras. We partied to some chill music from our favourite DJ Daz and had a lovely meal of fish and chips in the garden as the sun set. Then it was time to move inside for the Awards Ceremony which featured some awesome video clips put together by our Artistic Director, Stuart Smith and our Music Director, Andrew Sampford.
During the ceremony, photos of the nominees in each category were featured on the big screen and the winners received a beautiful engraved trophy. The prestigious Gold Molly Award was won by Shani-Lee Morse. All of our ensemble members also received a very stylish commemorative 2024 Molly Awards Medal on a gold ribbon ensuring that everyone was a winner!
