The Royal Variety Charity is delighted to be this year's official charity partner for 'The Offies', the Off-West-End Theatre Awards, to be held on Monday, 17th March 2025, at Central Hall Westminster.
Since 2010 the OffWestEnd Awards (Offies) has recognised the exceptional independent theatre that takes place beyond the glitz of London’s West End. In 2019, the awards expanded to include major fringe festivals throughout the UK.
Each year, the Offies assessment process is a huge undertaking. Last year they assessed almost 600 productions at over 115 venues for their main awards alone, with thousands more for their OffFest categories… no other theatre awards in the world sees so many shows at so many venues.
Winning an Offie is truly a triumphant feat, fending off competition from hundreds of productions, and thousands of creatives. The sheer scale of OffWestEnd theatre in London and beyond means competition is fierce and taking home an award is a true accolade.
The Royal Variety Charity is thrilled to support such an important event in the entertainment calendar.
