Maps Broadway.com Audience Awards

Ceremonies

Audiences vote for their top five choices in each category, and the five most popular votes become that categories' nominee. People then vote from that group of five, and the final choice becomes that categories' winner. However, the nominee voting was not added until 2005, and initially people only voted once. After the voting, the winners are announced in an online Broadway.com article, and a VIP awards ceremony and cocktail reception has been held annually since 2011 about a week afterwards. Although the event is not open to the public, Broadway.com reporters to film interviews with the winners, who are also photographed with their awards. However, they don't get to keep their awards just yet, as they are taken away to be engraved. They are mailed to each winner's respective theater about a week afterwards.
