Parity Productions’ yearly Awards Ceremony & Celebration (AC&C) announces the winners of the company’s Annual Commission Awards, in addition to featuring a screening or short performance of the previous year’s award-winning production(s). “Two women, trans, or gender-expansive playwrights who have demonstrated a dedication to the craft of playwriting and a singular talent for storytelling.”

In 2019, the name of the ceremony was changed from “The Annual Parity Productions Gala” to the “Parity Productions Awards Ceremony & Celebration.” The word ‘gala’ was formal, and the company wanted the name to feel more inclusive. With the name change, the company wanted to stray away from the old Awards Ceremony logos into something a little bit more captivating. We kept with the theme of transparent boxes used in the key art, but layered them on top on each other. In 2021 the colors were changed to fit ADA compliance rules. In addition to the logos, a print and digital version of a program was created every year.
