Cincinnati Community Theaters are judged throughout
the year by a panel of critics appointed by A.C.T., the Association
of Community Theaters. In addition to constructive criticism - that
is used to improve and maintain the quality of our productions -
we receive recognition for excellence in direction, performance,
and the technical aspects of our presentations. These are called
Orchid Awards and are given out every June.
