Honoring excellence in journalism and the arts in the United States since 1917, the Pulitzer Prize includes a category for a distinguished play by an American playwright.
Presented by the American Theatre Wing and the Broadway League, these awards are given for Broadway productions and performances, with an award given for regional theatre as well.
Recognizing excellence in Broadway, Off-Broadway, and Off-Off-Broadway, these significant awards in American theatre are presented by the Drama Desk Organization.
The second oldest theatre award in the United States after the Pulitzer Prize, it honors best play, best foreign play if the best play is American, best musical, and other awards and citations.
Named after Sir Laurence Olivier, these awards, presented by the Society of London Theatre, recognize excellence in professional London theatre annually.
