 REPS Theatre has announced the nominees for the 12th edition of the African Distillers Awards for Excellence. The awards are given to actors and crew members who have stood out during REPS productions in the preceding year. Three Family’s- the Bolts, the Gukutas and the Hydes, stand out in the list of nominees this year, along with a number of other multiple award nominees.
