Chapman Tripp Theatre Awards Type Wellington , New Zealand theatre awardsEstablished 1992
Established in 1992 and sponsored by law firm Chapman Tripp , the prestigious awards were a highlight in Wellington's art and social calendar. The presentations also recognised important contributions to the arts and the community. The winners were selected by a panel of Wellington theatre critics.
