Awards History
ACTRA Toronto helped to re-introduce the ACTRA Awards as part of the union's 60th Anniversary celebrations in 2003. The purpose behind the Awards' rebirth was to recognize excellence in the performances of ACTRA Toronto members.
The inaugural ceremony was held at the Royal Ontario Museum. The event was an impressive success, combining the best elements of a traditional awards ceremony with an intimate gathering between friends. From these humble beginnings the stature of the Awards grew.
The show moved into the luxurious and sophisticated Carlu theatre, in the heart of downtown Toronto, and a new statuette was commissioned to be bestowed on award recipients. Now in its ninth year, the ACTRA Awards in Toronto has become one of the premier events in the city.
Despite its growth, the heart of the ACTRA Awards is the same: the recognition and celebration, by fellow performers, of the outstanding performances delivered by ACTRA Toronto members.
