Awards
Honorary Life Membership Awarded
Back in the 1980s, this year’s Life Member Nominee was directing shows, helping behind the scenes and generally providing all around support to Regina Little Theatre. And now that they are a bit more …. experienced…. they are still doing all of those things. Quietly and without attention, this individual is still directing, helping with front of house, and providing their vast knowledge of music to the soundscape of many productions. This volunteer continues to be a mainstay to our theatre company and we would like to show our appreciation by granting the Regina Little Theatre’s Honourary Life Member this year to Mr. Bob Nicholls.

The Sampson J. Goodfellow Award, more commonly known as the Sammy Award, is presented annually to a volunteer for
- Most valuable contribution to Regina Little Theatre
- Outstanding contribution in the art of theatre
We are always so excited when we see young people walk through the RLT door and find a home here. This year’s recipient first walked through the door as a youngster, just tagging along, and they stayed. This year alone they performed in a main stage, worked back stage on two others as well as the fall one acts and directed a one act this spring and, if that wasn’t enough, they also helped with make up on many if not all of the productions. These young volunteers are our future, and we are so very happy to present Cedar Park, this year’s Sammy Award.

The Freddy Award was first presented at the end of the 2011-2012 season in honour of retiring board member Fred Gallagher. Fred's years of service and tireless efforts as treasurer, set builder, and office manager typify the best of RLT. It is fitting that this award is bestowed on those unsung heroes who are "the heart of RLT."
This year has been very challenging for our Board due to the loss of our dear friend and board-mate, Arlene Janzen. She left very large shoes to fill. It took a bit of time to find our new treasurer, Veronica, but in the meantime, Cathy Moberly stepped in … or should I say jumped in head first. Too many hours to count were spent making sure all was in order and then assisting Veronica to get up to speed. And she continues to help Veronica. That is on top of her other duties as Vice President and front-of-house coordinator. We are very honoured to present Cathy Moberly with this award as she truly is the “Heart of RLT”.

The Jacqui Award
Named In honour of Jacqui Shumiatcher, “the Jacqui” was developed to recognize the philanthropic support RLT has received over the years, and is given to an individual or group to acknowledge the importance of their contributions made to Regina Little Theatre.
When looking back at old programs from the 90’s and we saw the names Gary and Jessie Carlson under the donations list. Those names are still on our programs to this day. They have been members since the 80s. RLT would not be here today without those names. The actors, the directors, all the creative behind-the-scenes people would not be able to do the fun things we do without those kind and generous supporters. We would like to say a heartfelt thank you to the Carlsons for your over 40 years of support.
