The Georgia Theatre Conference
Hall of Fame
The Georgia Theatre Hall of Fame was established by the Board of Directors of the Georgia Theatre Conference in 2008 to recognize exemplary contributions and accomplishments of theatre practitioners from, or working in, the state of Georgia. The award is given at the discretion of the Board of Directors, and is not necessarily given every year. In 2016, the Board established a policy that no more than two candidates would be admitted to the Hall of Fame in a given year. Within each year below, multiple recipients are listed in alphabetical order.
