Critics' Table serves up worthy arts nominees
AMERICAN-STATESMAN ARTS CRITIC
Tuesday, May 12, 2009
Originally published on May 8, 2008
Ballet Austin's "Cult of Color: Call to Color," Austin Museum of Art's triennial exhibit "New Art in Austin" and Zach Scott Theatre's production of "Porgy and Bess" are just three of many events in the past year to be nominated for an award by the Austin Critics' Table.
Other nominees announced today include composer Graham Reynolds, who was nominated for two original compositions, "Cult of Color: Call to Color" and "The Odyssey," a choral work commissioned by the Austin Children's Choir; dancers David Justin, Andee Scott and Laura Cannon; actors Marc Pouhé, Lee Eddy and Katherine Catmull; and visual artists Yoon Cho, Ali Fitzgerald and Jonathan Marshall. Costume designer Susan Branch, sound designer Buzz Moran and lighting designer Tony Tucci are also among this year's nominees.
The informal group of arts critics from the American-Statesman and the Austin Chronicle acknowledges achievement in the arts with its annual awards. Awards are given in various categories for theater, dance, visual art and classical music.
This year's awards ceremony will be at 7 p.m. June 2 at the Cap City Comedy Club, 8120 Research Blvd. Admission is free, and no reservations are required.
