The Robert Finley Awards

The ITA Finley Award is made annually to what is judged to be the best theatrical production in that year by an amateur group in Western Australia. Originally there was one award — that of “Best Production” — later the award was altered to two categories, Best Play and Best Musical.

In recent years the awards have been expanded to include Best Actor and Actress and many other categories. The Award is made available by the Finley Trust Fund, established in 1986 by Miss Hetty Finley, in memory of her brother Robert, and is controlled by the Finley Trustees through the Perth Theatre Trust.
