Pyramid was honored this past weekend in the 2020 Virtual Cloris Awards

Due to the unprecedented circumstances surrounding the current health crisis, the Cloris Awards could not continue as usual this year. Instead, the ceremony was held virtually to honor theater organizations and personalities in the Greater Des Moines area. The awards were dubbed “DIY” because not all theaters were able to have their normal seasons due to COVID-19. Companies agreed to create their own awards and host a virtual ceremony instead.

Alexis Davis, the Pyramid Theatre Company Managing Director, attended the ceremony to receive the “Resilience” award on behalf of our company. We were given recognition for giving Black artists a platform to tell stories of experiences and struggles of being Black in the United States. We chose the Resilience award to highlight our hard work during the unprecedented health crisis we have all had to survive this year.

Various other theaters and personalities received awards as well for their innovation and efforts to find creative ways to share talent and contribute to our community this year.
