IVEY AWARDS

Take a bow

The Ivey Awards honor the rich diversity and talent of the renowned Minneapolis theater community, recognizing outstanding achievements across disciplines such as direction, performance, and design. The “A Play on Words. Awards on Play.” campaign draws from the language of the stage, transforming familiar phrases into spectacular theatrical mini-vignettes. The fantasy unfolds across print and digital touchpoints in an integrated campaign that brings the phrase “Taking a Bow” to new heights..
