The winners of the 2005 New York Innovative Theatre Awards.  They were held on September 19th at 7 PM at the Lucille Lortel Theatre (101 Christopher Street), and hosted by Charles Busch (Psycho Beach Party, The Tale of the Allergist's Wife).

"The New York IT Awards is a not-for-profit arts organization supporting Off-Off-Broadway, by celebrating and recognizing extraordinary Off-Off-Broadway theatre, nurturing the community of Off-Off-Broadway and honoring the artistic heritage of Off-Off-Broadway. The NYITA organization recognizes the unique and essential role Off-Off-Broadway plays in contributing to American and global culture. We believe that publicly recognizing excellence in Off-Off-Broadway will expand audience awareness and appreciation of the full New York theatre experience," according to press notes.
