At the first in-person Gregory Award Ceremony for five years, PFP artists caused quite a stir, carting off four Gregory Awards for theatrical excellence, as awarded by Theatre Puget Sound at its awards ceremony Monday, October 21.

PFP producer Anamaria Guerzon won for Outstanding Performance in a Musical for her role in Reboot Theatre’s Anyone Can Whistle (Stephen Sondheim’s hidden gem).

PFP Producer Josh Valdez won for Outstanding Sound Designfor Yun Theatre’s heartfelt memory play June is the First Fall (making it Yun Theatre’s first Gregory).

Linus Guo won Outstanding Performance by a Musician in PFP’s and SIS Productions’ Vietgone (hurrah for band ninjas!)

And, to top it off, PFP and SIS Productions won Outstanding Production of a Play for Vietgone!  This marks the very first Asian/Asian American play to be named Outstanding Play at the Gregorys (Sara Porkalob’s Dragon Lady won Outstanding Musical in 2018).

PFP led an eye-popping parade of Asian American artists at the Gregorys as PFP alum Maggie Lee won Outstanding Original Script for her touching Once More, Just for You at Seattle Public Theatre,  Pearl Lam won Outstanding Performance in a Play for SIS Productions’ and Seattle Public Theatre’s Unrivaled and Robin Macartney won Outstanding Properties or Special Effects Design for Once More Just for You.

Give all of the winners a hand!
