Live theatre in the greater Washington area is a major fuel for the local economic engine. With 80 professional theatres, they produce the second highest per-capita number of theatre productions annually — second only to New York City\'s Broadway. One reason for that impressive statistic is because of the prestige that comes from the Helen Hayes Awards. Monday, January 28th theatreWashington will announce the 29th Helen Hayes Awards nominees, in the National Theatre\'s Helen Hayes Gallery. This year, for the first time, theatre lovers in Washington and around the world can watch the nomination announcements live via webcast. Click here to connect or learn more from theatreWashington. The webcast begins at 6:45 pm.
