Awards 2020
Johnny and the Dead (Nov. 2019), Fantastic Mr Fox (March 2020) was cancelled the day of the dress rehearsal due to Covid-19 when all theatres had to close.

Sadly no Awards were presented - they've going to combine them with next year's as so many productions had to be cancelled between March and September 2020.
Due to the Covid-19 restrictions LeedsCAN decided to put together a virtual celebration of the season via Zoom. The event was recorded and can be watched online |
