MTM:UK Musical Theatre Awards
MTM:UK Musical Awards are now in their 4th year at the Edinburgh Fringe and are now an integral part of the Festival. MTM:UK initiated the first ever awards for Musical Theatre in 2007 and since then over 180 musicals have been entered with winners including: Ed The Musical, Barbershopera I & II, Accidental Nostalgia, Departure Lounge and Truth in Translation. There are no other awards like these in the UK, and the Edinburgh Fringe is now the place where producers launch New Musicals. Musicals must meet very stringent criteria to be entered for the Awards. A team of specially selected assessors view every eligible musical twice to ensure only the best, most exciting and innovative musicals are shortlisted. The final shortlist of musicals in 5 Award categories are then seen by every member of the judging panel. All shortlisted shows perform at the MTM:UK Award Gala and the winners are presented with their prizes. The final Fringe First Awards also recognises the contribution of Musical Theatre with a special section in their final Awards Ceremony.MTM:UK Musical Theatre Awards 2009
