The evening will feature entertainment from shows of the year.

Actors' Playhouse earned 14 nominations followed by Broward Stage Door Theatre with 11 and Palm Beach Dramaworks with 10. Actor Avi Hoffman was nominated in two categories — Actor in a Play for Superior Donuts and Supporting Actor in a Musical in Hairspray.

In a category that indicates the health of community, suggesting adventurousness on the part of producers and audiences, the nominees for Best New Work are David Michael Sirois for his play Brothers Beckett (Alliance Theatre Lab) in Miami Lakes; Michael McKeever for his play Stuff (Caldwell Theatre Company in Boca Raton); Christopher Demos Brown, who won the award last year, for his play Captiva (Zoetic Stage in Miami); and Carter W. Lewis for his play The Cha-Cha of a Camel Spider (the final production at Florida Stage in Palm Beach County; the theatre folded in 2011).
