JOIN US AS WE CELEBRATE OUR VOLUNTEERS AT THE 73rd ANNUAL CHANTICLEER AWARDS!We will present awards for Best Production, Best Performers, and Best Designers, as well as honoring our top volunteers for the 2025-2026 season.
The Chanticleer Awards are an annual celebration honoring the volunteers who made the past season possible. The evening begins with a cocktail hour at 6:30 p.m., featuring appetizers, beverages, and a cash bar. The program and ceremony follow at 7:30 p.m., showcasing performances from each production in the season.
Awards will be presented at a “Tony Awards-style” ceremony, including categories such as Best Lead Performer in a Musical, Best Sound Design, and Best Featured Ensemble. These honors are voted on by community members who have attended every show in the season.
Additional awards recognize exceptional contributions from within the Weathervane community, including the Top 25 Volunteers—those who contributed the most volunteer hours over the past year.
The entire ceremony typically runs about 90 minutes and serves as a festive finale to the season’s work.
Each volunteer who logged and recorded a minimum of 50 hours during the 2025-2026 season is entitled to one free ticket. All other tickets are $15.
