USITT Award

The USITT Award recognizes a lifetime contribution in the performing arts community in any capacity. Recipients of this award do not need to be members of the Institute nor must they have any connection to USITT. The award is presented at the Annual Conference & Stage Expo where the recipient is honored. Annually, one or more awards are given. The USITT Award was presented for the first time in 1967 to Rosamund Gilder of the International Theatre Institute.
