Derby is fortunate to have one of the country's largest and most vibrant Amateur Theatre communities and awards ceremony. Designed exclusively by Royal Crown Derby, the magnificent Eagle Awards are presented annually to individuals who have excelled in key areas of non-professional theatre. Amateur translates as ‘for the love of it’ and The Eagle Awards celebrate, promote and recognise this love and the wonderful array of theatre it produces each year.
The 2018 Eagle Awards will be held on Sunday 15th July
