Volunteer Recognition Awards
In 1987, Topeka Civic Theatre began honoring it's volunteers with a special awards ceremony. Although all volunteers are vital to the success of TCT, it was decided to give special recognition to those who work more shows, had added responsibility, or generally gave their "all" for a particular performance. Awards were given for performers, but the awards listed below honor the volunteers who work "behind the scenes." Awarded since 1987.
