The Un-Common Theatre Company is thrilled to announce that our Spring 2011 production of “The Secret Garden” has been recognized as Best Production in the Children and Youth Division AND has been awarded the 2011 Moss Hart Award for Best Overall Production, by the New England Theatre Conference.

The annual Moss Hart Memorial Award has a two-fold purpose: to honor the memory of Moss Hart, dramatist and director, for his wit and sensitivity, for his unconquerable enthusiasm for life and for his work in the theatre; and to recognize and encourage outstanding theatrical productions throughout New England of playscripts that present affirmative views of human courage and dignity, that have strong literary and artistic merit, and which in their productions, exemplify fresh, imaginative, creative treatment within the intent of the playwright. The New England Theatre Conference, in making the annual Moss Hart Memorial Award, seeks to encourage artistic growth and the highest standards of excellence in theatre.

Huge congratulations to everyone involved in this amazing production: the creative team, the production team, the cast, the techies, the parent and student volunteers, the audience, the orchestra …….EVERYONE. We couldn’t be Un-Common without any of you!
