The Stage Debut Awards are the only awards to recognise breakthrough theatre talent. They celebrate emerging actors and creatives, from all backgrounds.
With so many outstanding debut performances to recognise and celebrate we extended the judging period this year. Actors, directors, designers, writers, composers or lyricists making their debut between August 1, 2020 and July 17, 2022 are eligible.
The shortlists for all categories were announced on August 18, 2022.
