The Calvin Theatre Company has received eight nominations for Grand Awards,
the annual awards for theatre excellence bestowed by the Grand Rapids theatre
community.

The 2005 Grand Awards will be presented on October 9 at the Aquinas College
Performing Arts Center.

"It's been gratifying to have Calvin's work recognized by the community," says
Debra Freeberg, a Calvin College communication arts and sciences (CAS)
professor. "I think we really have to credit the Grand Awards with helping
people know how good Calvin theatre really is."

Freeberg says that in years past theatre at Calvin probably was viewed by the
West Michigan community as strictly a Calvin event. She believes that the Grand
Awards have spotlighted Calvin's commitment to excellence in theatre and the
college's desire to present its plays to the larger community.

Calvin's 2004-2005 theatre season is nominated in every college category of
the Grand Awards.
