Stage: And The Winners Are
Brighton & Hove Arts Council announce their drama award winners
December for the Brighton & Hove Arts Council can only mean one thing – the announcements of the Drama Awards! At a sparkling evening in BHASVIC’s main hall 15 awards were made to a full house of thespians and their supporters. With entertainment provided by the talented musician and singer Hannah Rose Tristram, it was a wonderful way to all come together and celebrate the hard work and artistic success of our local theatre companies.
