Event Details
The Cappies Gala 2026 excitedly returns to the Aronoff Center's Procter & Gamble Hall to celebrate their 25th anniversary! The Greater Cincinnati Cappies began in January 2002 in cooperation with theater teachers from Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky and with media support from the Cincinnati Enquirer and CityBeat.
The purpose of the Cappies is to enhance the long-term growth of theater and the performing arts within Cincinnati by celebrating, promoting, and improving theater at the high school level. Cappies provides outreach within the high school theater community with training, rewards, and recognition for high school theater students.
Through the Cappies, high school student critics attend and review each other's shows, publish their reviews in local newspapers, and participate in a year-end, Tony® Award-style gala held in the Aronoff Center for the Arts with proud community partner, the Cincinnati Arts Association.

THEATER ETIQUETTE
For the comfort and enjoyment of your fellow audience members, and to not distract those around you and the actors onstage:
- Turn OFF your cell phone. Even silent calls can be distracting, and the light from your phone can be as disruptive as a cell phone ring. Turn OFF your cell phone.
- Be sure your cell phone is turned off again after intermission.
- Refrain from talking or allowing children to kick seats ahead of them during the performance.
- Photos and recording during the performance are strictly prohibited.
Note that guests who are disturbing those around them may be asked to leave the theater.
