The Hollywood Encore! Producers’ Awards, or Encores, produced by Combined Artform, return for their tenth year.

The Encores run through Aug. 31 at 11 Hollywood venues and feature the best shows from the Hollywood Fringe Festival.

This year’s extensions highlight  a selection of exceptional ensemble and solo works. Over 50 judges, press and venue managers participated in selecting the shows. Many commented that this year’s festival featured the strongest shows yet in terms of both artistry and audience attendance.

Shows are selected on artistic merit, commercial potential and developmental possibilities. Past winners of The Hollywood Encore! Producers’ Awards have gone on to tour nationally and enjoy extended commercial runs in the Los Angeles area and at the New York City SoHo Playhouse.

A complete schedule of Encore shows will be announced in the near future.

The Hollywood Fringe Festival ran from June 13 through 30. For information and a schedule, email bgrodrigueza@gmail.com or visit hollywoodfringe.org.
