Frederique and Charles were awarded the "QUEEN OF THE ANGELS" Award in recognition of their amazing contributions to the theatre community of LA. They were introduced by LA Weekly theatre critic Steven Leigh Morris who said they were receiving the award:
"For decades of directing and producing scintillating, politically
charged theater that challenges audiences to reconsider their
assumptions about the nature of politics, and the nature of theater
itself. Given with gratitude and respect by the critics of the LA
Weekly. March 30, 2009."

On a sidenote, I was thrilled to attend the 50s themed awards ceremony and wore a dress formerly belonging to Lucille Ball (she wore it on "I Love Lucy!!") All in all, an incredible night for City Garage.
