But do you know why Theater of the Stars doesn't get included? They're professional. They may even have a bigger budget than the Alliance. And they use a lot of local performers. Congrats to TITS!

So the A doesn't get it every year. And the companies that compete at the Suzis are all professional theaters, and the vast majority are Equity houses. The big issue is budget: The A is over $11 milllion, and the next largest, Theatre in the Square, is at $2 million. Not really a comparison.
