Stage-door Best Performance Award

History
Stage-Door's Best performance award was created from the old Most Improved award. Rather than being issued by the commitee once a year, it was decided that the award should be voted for by the company, and be handed out every show. Any company member can vote, either those who are in the show or those who came to watch it.

There are currently three seperate trophies for the award, one for the spring show, one for the summer show and one for the winter show so that each winner can hold the trophy for one full year before returning it.

In 2012 the Spring trophy was retired after the shield was filled. And evermore shall be so, was the first show to use the new spring trophy and it was awarded to Dave Griffin for his role as Roy Steadman.

Current
The most recent holder of the Stage-Door best performance award is Barry Tinkler, having won the award for his last minute role as Marvin Marvel in Four Weddings and an Elvis.
