“Receiving the Regional Theatre Tony Award is the greatest
honor any regional theatre could
imagine,” said Paper Mill Playhouse Producing Artistic Director, Mark S. Hoebee. “The most
incredible part of this is that the
award is bestowed upon you
for the work you are doing. You
don’t compete for it, you can’t
petition for it, it is borne out of
a conversation among our colleagues in New York, colleagues
whom we admire and emulate.
To be recognized by those you
hold in such high esteem is beyond words.”
“We have dreamed that one
day we might be honored in this
way, but it is certainly not something we ever expected,” continued Hoebee. “We value this so
much because this award validates not only the work we are
doing on the mainstage and the
shows that are finding a life after
they premiere at Paper Mill, but
also the incredible work that we
are doing with arts education,
access and outreach. Paper Mill
