Dora Mavor Moore Award for Best Original Play (Independent Theatre)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Dora Mavor Moore Award for Outstanding New Play, Independent Theatre is a Canadian theatre award, presented as part of the Dora Mavor Moore Awards to honour the year's best new play by a Canadian playwright which had its premiere in the Toronto theatre market in the previous year.

The award was first presented in 1988 as an award for small theatre productions. In 1993, a separate award for mid-sized theatre was introduced, with the definitions set at 200 seats or less for small theatres and 200 to 500 seats for midsize theatres.[1] The awards were presented alongside each other to different plays until 1997; in 1998, the awards were merged as a single award for independent theatre production.
