**Special Note

Kakiseni introduced the Musical Theatre category in response to the growing number of productions over the past few years. It is a new category with twelve awards, and we were unfortunately unable to secure a new sponsor to cover the prize money, given the tough economic climate. The winners will however get a trophy and the recognition that comes being part of the BOH Cameronian Arts Awards.
