John E. Awards

SPIRIT OF CCT AWARDS

The Spirit of CCT Awards (now known as the John E.s) premiered in 1999 as a way for Chino Community Theatre to honor excellence in production and performance. The awards are named in honor of John Lynd, an early and long-standing supporter of both CCT and CCCT. 

The award was originally conceived by CCT alum Tim Smith, and recipients were first selected by Chino Community Theatre's Season Ticket holders, recognizing the production, each season, that best demonstrated the "Spirit of CCT". 

Beginning in 2023, CCT is hoping that not only will the best production be recognized, but the finest in each show's cast, crew, and production team will be recognized as well.
