Trinity Rep director gets Chicago award

Curt Columbus, artistic directory of Providence's Trinity Repertory Company, has won a Joseph Jefferson Citations Award, a prize given to non-Equity professional theaters in Chicago, according to the website Backstage.com.

Columbus won the award for his adaptation of Three Sisters for Chicago's Strawdog Theatre Company. Columbus worked in Chicago theater before moving to Trinity Rep this year.

The Citations are different from the Joseph Jefferson Awards, which honor productions that employ personnel from Equity, the union for actors and stage managers.
