And the 2015 Broadway Producer of the Year is . . .
Well, my friends, your votes have been counted . . . and oh boy oh boy oh was this a tight race. Just a handful of votes separated the winner, the runner up AND the 2nd runner up!
Yep, there were a lot of great Producers putting up great shows this year.
But there can only be one winner.
So, cue the drum roll and the trumpets and the confetti . . . because the winner of The Producer’s Perspective 2015 Broadway Producer of the Year is . . .
A Nonprofit Producer!
(Cue the gasps!)
Ladies and Gentlemen, you have chosen Oskar Eustis as Broadway Producer of the Year!!!
Oskar is only the second Nonprof Producer of the Year we’ve had, but I can totally see why you voted him in. From Fun Home to Hamilton to the upcoming Eclipsed, the man is helping to shape theatrical history, and we’re lucky enough to be able to watch him do it.
Join me in congratulating Oskar!
And maybe next year, we’ll see YOU on that list of nominees.
