The Dayton Theatre Hall of Fame was created to honor local theatre artists and patrons of the arts whose life-long participation, innovation, and creativity have helped to influence the Dayton arts culture.
The Hall of Fame is a way to recognize individuals who have dedicated themselves to the cause of theatre arts in Dayton, or have made a significant impact on Dayton’s theatre community.
Anyone wishing to nominate a candidate (including oneself) for consideration is required to submit a Letter of Nomination outlining the actions, influences, and impact noted above. This Letter of Nomination must also be accompanied by two Supporting letters for the nominee. These three letters must be forwarded to the Hall of Fame committee at the same time, and in one email.
Thank you for being a member of the Dayton theatre community, or having an interest in local theatre. It takes a Village to make good theatre, and the Dayton Arts Community is stronger than ever!
Deadline: By midnight, Saturday, May 9, 2026
