The Ameriprise Financial Ivey's Awards were Monday night. They're local live theatre awards that are completely based on audience feedback. You can volunteer to be an evaluator, or you can give feedback through the Ivey website. I think that it's really nice to see a community that wants to tell it's theatre artists that they are appreciated. Sometimes it's easy to feel that theatre in America is on the endangered species list, along with dance, music, the visual arts, libraries, and anything else that isn't highschool football. Some of the theatre folks in the Twin Cities were a little leary of an award sponsored by a financial services firm, but when I think of all of the other worthy causes toward which they could have put their money, I think it's the height of unprofessionalism not to be appreciative. My mama always said, "If someone gives you a compliment, smile and say thank you."
Here are pictures from Adia Morris, because I was too much a space case to bring my camera. That's what happens when I remember the cute little dressy handbag--I forget what I want to take with me.

It's just spiked. I was trying to find the little hair snaps so I could put sparklies in it, but I couldn't find any.
