The Rep wins nine 2019 St. Louis Theater Circle Awards

The Rep is honored to have received nine 2019 St. Louis Theater Circle Awards, recognizing the outstanding work that appeared on our stages last year.

Our 2018-2019 season opener Evita led the way with seven awards, including outstanding production of a musical, ensemble in a musical and director of a musical (Rob Ruggiero). Evita's seven wins represent one of the biggest hauls in the Circle Awards' history – only The Rep's 2012 production of Sunday in the Park with George received more, with eight.

Retiring Rep artistic director Steven Woolf also received a lifetime achievement award.
