BroadwayWorld.com Announces Annual Theater Awards Nominees from the Philippines

New York, November 19, 2013--BroadwayWorld.com, the largest theater site on the Internet covering Broadway, London's West End, and beyond to 100 U.S. cities and 30 countries worldwide, and whose contents are catalogued in the Library of Congress, has recently announced its annual theater awards nominees from more than 50 regional markets across the globe, including the Philippines.

-

When BroadwayWorld.com was launched 10 years ago, one of its very first features was its theater fans' choice awards named BroadwayWorld.com Awards. Every year, the awards set new records for the total number of nominations and votes received; this year's total number of nominations has even doubled compared to last year.

Once again, hundreds of thousands of theater fans worldwide have been weighing in. With such progressive online engagement, BroadwayWorld.com Awards' reputation as the largest and most popular online poll of its kind--open to all and with fully visible and audited results--has been further solidified.

BroadwayWorld.com gets more than four million visitors monthly, of which more than 60,000 come from the Philippines.

Until December 31, 2013, Filipino theater fans can only vote once. Winners will be announced in early January 2014.

To vote, visit broadwayworld.com/philippines/vote2013region.cfm.
