The awards celebrate the best of non-Equity theatre in Chicago.
Bailiwick Repertory led Chicago's companies in Citations for non-union productions, earning a total of 11, followed by TimeLine Theatre Company with six, Strawdog Theatre Company with four and Pyewacket and Griffin Theatre Company with three each.
Strawdog Theatre Company's Detective Story and Hannah and Martin from TimeLine Theatre shared the Outstanding Production-Play honors. Dr. Sex, presented by Bailiwick Repertory, took home the Outstanding Production-Musical or Revue Citation.
Bailiwick's Sin: A Cardinal Deposed took several Citations Awards, including New Adaptation (for writer Michael Murphy) and Principal Actor-Play (Jim Sherman). The provocative docudrama about the Boston Catholic diocese sex-abuse scandal will make its Off-Broadway debut in 2003-04.
Dr. Sex, about Dr. Kinsey and his famous report, by writers Larry Bortniker and Sally Deering, is expected in New York in the coming year as well. It also won in the category of New Work and Director-Musical (David Zak). Citations Award winners and nominees are listed below. Winners are noted in bold with an asterisk.
