The Drama Desk Awards are an annual celebration of the best of Broadway, off-Broadway, and off-off-Broadway talent. Each year, the Drama Desk's voters select winners from the pool of artists nominated in each of its 30 categories. Joey Parnes Productions will produce and manage the show, which will be written by Jonathan Tolins and directed by Mark Waldrop. For the sixth consecutive year, TheaterMania will present the ceremony.
