The Standard Bank Ovation Awards are designed to reward creative excellence and innovation on the Fringe and are decided by a team of adjudicators made up of art critics, directors and others who, between them, see all the productions premiering on the Fringe.
Keep your eye on Cue’s social media updates and daily publications for the announcements of newly appointed Standard Bank Ovation Awards winners – those stellar performances you cannot miss.
Previous years’ award-winning productions can also be identified by the Standard Bank Ovation Award logo on posters and flyers.
